Earlier this week we went to the living history museum, Strawberry Banke and there was so much to see and do that we couldn't do it all in one day.
The museum is in Portsmouth (NH) and has homes and exhibits from Colonial times to the World War II era. The girls were excited to see homes from the era of their favorite American Girl historical book characters.
The kids also had a chance to play some old-fashioned outdoor games like Rolling Hoops and Game of Graces.
But then an interpreter came along and set the girls straight on the "proper way" to play the Game of Graces. Apparently they were using the shorter rolling hoop sticks instead of the longer, thinner Grace sticks.
And the girls' hoop activities continue as they're dancing with the more modern hula hoops during their dance recital tonight and tomorrow.
It's going to be a busy couple of days...
