Strawbery Banke Museum offers a fun way for children ages 8 to10 to avoid the winter doldrums this year.  During winter school vacation week in New Hampshire, Maine, and Massachusetts, the Museum is offering “Wintertimes Past,” a daily program filled with a variety of cooking activities, indoor and outdoor games, stories, and arts and crafts.  Every activity is designed to offer an historical perspective on childhood activities in earlier times. Children will learn how to pull taffy, cook a meal over an open hearth, dip a candle, forecast the weather without TV, and make hot chocolate from scratch. A mix of indoor and outdoor activities will keep children busy and learning while having fun.

One session of camp will be offered: February 25-29.  The camp will run Monday through Friday, from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. The cost per session is $180 for Museum members, $195 for non-members. Space is limited, and pre-registration is required. Please contact Bekki Coppola at tel. 603-422-7541 or email camps@strawberybanke.org to register.
