Old
Fashioned Fun Day
Sunday, July 26
1 - 4 p.m.
On Old Fashioned Fun Day
special “kid-friendly” tours of Acorn Hall will be
provided. These tours include hands-on artifacts in each
room so that young visitors can experience the 19th
century.
On the back lawn of
Acorn Hall traditional 19th century games such as
croquet, graces, and rolling hoops will prove that fun
doesn’t need batteries! Victorian-themed “make and take”
crafts will be available for children ages four and up.
Each child will receive an Acorn Hall activity book to
take home.
Explore the
grounds while searching for the fairies in the fairy
garden. Learn about letter-boxing, a type of scavenger
hunt that began in the Victorian era.
Adults and children can
play dress-up with a wide selection of
Victorian-inspired clothing. Capture the moment with a
sepia-toned picture to take home.
Old Fashioned Fun Day
will take place rain or shine. Admission is $6 for
adults, $5 for seniors, $3 for students. Children under
twelve and MCHS members are free.
