Several of the buildings had docents who gave us a tour and background information. In the sheriff's office was a flag with 48 stars and he quizzed the kids as to the two "missing" states. After getting Hawaii they were struggling to come up with the other. Ian started snapping his fingers... he almost had it... he said "that state with the almost vice-president..." Alaska!
The larger group broke into smaller parts for exploration and we did our tour with friends. The eight children between the ages of 1.5 and 10 enjoyed the entire facility, taking their time to try their hand at various activities.
After being shown how to do the washing without a machine the kids gave it a shot
They also weighed out some merchandise at the dry goods store.
