I loved being able to go on the 2nd grade field trip to Traveler’s Rest Plantation with Jonas!!! It was a beautiful fall day. The kids went on a tour of the plantation home and talked about the difference between living now and living then (electricity, indoor plumbing, air conditioning, etc.), played with old time toys (Jacob’s Ladder, Buzz Saw, Cup and Ball Toss, Ring Toss, etc.), wrote with a quill pen, and learned a folk dance (the Virginia Reel). I’m so thankful for the enriching activities that the boys get to take part in through their wonderful school.
