We enjoyed a day at the Rogers Historical Museum.
You know us homeschool groups when you see us coming. Unsocialized and awkward around people. We are really working on that image as you can see. Ha Ha!
Ok, really! We had a fun time on our first field trip. We joined my sister-in-law, Melissa, and her five boys and another friend Danyelle with her four children. We actually make for a large enough group with just the three families!
Ah, now that is more like the sophisticated group of smarty pants homeschoolers I know. :)
Here is our museum tour guide for the day. We thought that she was going to walk around and tell us about things, but she didn't actually show us around. So, we were on our own, but that was good. The green building in the back was actually a room the kids could play in. There were all sorts of old things to explore hands on.

Jack and Caleb working the typewriter. That one looks like it has seen better days!
The girls are making something yummy!
Jack is trying to crank start an old car engine, while Jared and Levi watch the moving parts.
The kids each got a clipboard with a scavenger hunt paper. They ran around looking for the items.
Jack and Levi were pretending to be robbing the bank.

They had so much fun cooking over this big fake stove.
When we were finished at the museum, we went to the park, ate lunch, and played a while.
Except for the part where I asked the kids what they learned in the museum, and they said, "Nothing!", we had a lovely day.
