This blog is about things that interest me. I enjoy writing so we'll see where this goes.

So we took the kids on Friday to Rose Hill Manor Park in Frederick, Md. What a nice place! Our kids had a great time! It was about and a 1 1/2-2 hour tour of the mansion-carriage house, ice house, a log cabin, blacksmith shop, and the manor. Very hands on! The kids could card wool, they were able to try weaving, they grated cinnamon sticks, and ground a sugar cube with a mortar & pestle. They got to try on a few clothes that the kids wore and play with a few toys. Jaden loved the little table with the little "baby-sized" dishes and spoons! He just kept pretending to eat. Was so cute! We all really enjoyed it. It was a nice family outing-relaxing and fun.

I just love historic places and this sounds fun. I hope you got pictures. I have never carded wool. The tour sounds so great. Is it far from your home?
