Pioneer Farm Museum


The girls had a field trip with their school yesterday. They went to the pioneer farm museum. The girls had a great time. It was a hands on museum so they got to pretend what it was like to be a pioneer. They got to milk a cow , catch chickens, pet the pig and jump in the hay at the barn. They were able to try their hands in blacksmithing. In one cabin they were able to dress like pioneers and do some of the house hold chores. They even got to ride in a wagon.

There was a Indian village across from the farm. They were able to see how the Nisqually Indians lived in there different villages. The kids learned games the indian children play and also about some of the things that the indians used to survive. Both Alex and I had fun in hanging out their too.
