During our Homeschool Days, students will explore different aspects of American history in our two-part program. The first portion of the program, Native Americans along the Susquehanna River invites students into a wigwam to learn about the Native Americans of the region. In the second part of the program, students will take a guided tour of Fort Hunter Mansion to see what life was like during the Victorian Era in Harrisburg. The tour will also include a visit to the mansion shop.
While this program is geared towards students in grades 1 through 5, we will do our best to accomodate younger/older children.
