Homestead Sunday: An Afternoon at the Schoolhouse

What was it like to go to school in the 1870s? Visit our one room schoolhouse to find out. You will be able to practice your elocution, read from a McGuffey Reader and brush-up on your history. Save some time for recess!  Play a game of graces or tag and learn how to walk on stilts.

Step back in time at CNC's log cabin, timber frame barn and one-room school for a family-friendly afternoon at the Homestead Farm and Log Schoolhouse. Weekly themed activities will be available throughout the afternoon. You may get to try your hand at grinding corn, pumping water, writing on a slate board, working in the garden, tilling the field or watering the animals.

The Homestead and Schoolhouse will be open Sundays in June, July and August. Find full details at www.chippewanaturecenter.org/homestead-sundays
