Ultimate Good TIme

"This is the ultimate good time - sitting at a loom weaving".

"This is the most fun thing in the world."

The above are quotes from one of the kids participating in the Discovery Camp at Greenfield Village last week.

Sample from the Discovery Camp
I started volunteering at the weaving shoppe at the village this summer.  The last couple weeks there has been various ages of kids taking part in the day camp held at The Henry Ford.  The seventh graders  - as one of their choices of activities - have the option of weaving.  We have them weave narrow rag rugs.    It is exciting to see the enthusiasm of these kids as they explore new/old activities.
