SUMMARY:Kids' Hands-On History Summer Program
DESCRIPTION:Children ages 8-11 (or entering 3rd-6th grade) will explore Windsor history while having fun in a historical setting! Learn about Windsor’s people and their stories while “doing” history! Daily program themes build an understanding of Windsor’s diverse history from earliest times to the present day. \nMonday\, August 3\, Colonial Connections. Students will learn about 1600s Connecticut through crafts and play. They will learn to weave\, make a sparkling shad\, and compete in colonial-era games. \nTuesday\, August 4\, 1776 Sensations. 2026 marks the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence.  In honor of the American Revolution\, students will set up a soldier’s tent\, discover the music of the fife and drum\, and learn the beautiful science of cartography. \nWednesday\, August 5\, Boats and Bridges. The early 1800s were defined by a transportation revolution. Trains\, bridges\, and the Windsor Locks Canal system forever changed how people and products came to Windsor. Students will learn how to work the canals\, build a boat that floats\, and a rail that won’t fail. \nThursday\, August 6\, Impressions and Imagination. Connecticut has an important place in art history. Circa 1900\, American Impressionism found its heart in our tiny state. It was also the home of the creator of the Crayola crayon. Students will honor this history by creating their own Impressionist masterpiece and crafting with crayons. \nFriday\, August 7\, Modernizing Moments. Radio\, television\, and movies all found their form in the early 1900s. Students will get a behind-the-scenes look at the Historical Society’s collection\, explore the science behind these technologies\, and refresh themselves with a signature soda. \nRegistration required by July 24th. $45 for one day or $175 for the week.
