At the Pickering Museum Village

I had the chance to accompany my daughter in her class trip to the Pickering Museum Village. It was a very educational experience, learning about how life was during the pioneer days. Really makes you appreciate all the modern conveniences we have now.

Below are some pics I took that day:)


My daughter with her BFF:)
This pic makes me LOL so hard....
 Making a rope:


They got to make candles too!

Our tour guide baking a scone for the kids:

Have you been to a pioneer village like this?

No I haven't but it looks like fun, although the kids don't look greatly impressed! Ha! Did the scone taste good?

I never did taste it but my DD said it was:D
Looks like a fun and educational trip. I bet everyone was glad they don't have to live like the pioneers did ;p
We have something similar about half an hour away from here. I love the old porcelain, and the storage tins.

We have a few around here.

Actually during the TV series with Sacha Baron Cohen's Borat one of his best bits was going down to a SC plantation

Sounds like a fun field trip Emmy. The General store looks interesting I can’t believe this is really how it people shopped, hard to imagine. I’ve never been to a pioneer village but now I really want to visit.
How cool! I've been to Plymouth Plantation and that was something else. It was pretty full on. The actors never broke character which I found to be annoying hahaha. On the Mayflower I had a weird conversation with the "captain" who hadn't heard of Australia. It didn't occur to me he was in character though. This went on for a good ten minutes with my cousins in hysterics. I can be so slow sometimes hahahaha!

What a wonderful experience for them. My parents took us to places like this so that we would be appreciative. I'm sure your children will be glad that they have all of the conveniences we have today. <3
