Event Details

Families on the frontier might have had limited resources, but there was no shortage of resourcefulness! Pioneer children were able to come up with plenty of toys and games using their imagination or adapting ideas from people they met on the frontier, and sometimes surplus or discarded materials. Join SIR Mollie to learn how to create a figure (this is for boys AND girls!) from only corn husks and string! Your corn husk person can be whatever you want them to be, because it'll be yours to take home!
