Summer Learning: Travel Back to the 1800s with Palmetto Historical Park's Traveling Trunk! -- AMERICA 250

Join Palmetto Historical Park to learn what life was like in the 1800s! Inside their Traveling Trunk, youll discover a variety of hands-on items and activities that help children explore what life was like for Florida pioneers. When early settlers first arrived in this area, daily life revolved largely around one thing--chores. During this program, participants will step back in time to experience pioneer life by trying some of the tasks children and families once did every day, such as chopping firewood (with a plastic axe and log) , making butter, washing laundry, and more.
