What would it be like to live in colonial times? Don your cocked hat and join us for each session of the HIstory Hat Club as we explore an aspect of everyday life in colonial America!
The History Hat Club is for kids ages 6-10 and meets on the third Thursday of June, July and August in the Dutch House Garden. Each History Hat Club session explores a different facet of colonial life using hands-on activities designed just for children.
Session One - Artisans & Apprentices. Who were these people, what did they do? What do their finished products look and feel like? Sign your indenture and craft your own tin lantern!
Registration includes one adult chaperone (required) and one child. Each registered child will receive a cocked hat (tricorn) to wear during the History Hat Club meeting. Children will complete a craft during each session. Craft supplies are not provided for chaperones.
Please call if you are interested in registering for multiple sessions.
In the event of rain, the History Hat Club will meet in the Arsenal at 30 Market Street, New Castle, DE 19720.
