Visiting the One History Place Exhibit

I am going to visit the One History Place exhibit at The Strong Museum. There will be other children playing. There are lots of places to play there.

Museum hosts will be wearing blue shirts, and some may wear a mask. I might see museum workers cleaning and smell cleaning supplies while I am visiting. I can help keep the museum clean, too, by cleaning my hands.

I can dress up or play games up in the attic.

I can pretend to pump water in the old-fashioned kitchen. I can also wash and iron the laundry or have a tea party there.

On the mail train, I can shovel coal into the shoot. I can also sort the mail there.

I will stay inside One History Place with my adult until we are ready to leave together. I am excited to play with all the old-fashioned things in the exhibit.
