Listening to the Past Try-it Especially for Brownies
Saturday, April 26, 2008 from 12:30 to 3:30 p.m.
Be history detectives- what has been left behind that will tell us about the past? Let's listen to a young girl’s thoughts from her diary, see what we can learn from a cemetery, or play the games and do the work familiar to children of the past. Complete activities for the Listening to the Past Try-it, learn about the past and have lots of fun at the Maryland Historical Society!
