Story Time with the Traveling Trunk

Gather for a special Revolutionary-era Story Time featuring books about Betsy Ross and America’s founding. After the story, children can step back in time with hands-on activities including trying on colonial clothing, making lavender sachets, mixing gingerbread dough, and creating their own patriotic flags. A Revolutionary War traveling trunk filled with reproduction artifacts and everyday objects from the era will also be available for children to explore and handle. Activities are adapted for different age groups, making this a fun and engaging experience for the whole family. This program is in collaboration with Perkiomen Valley 250 and Historic Trappe.
