Children’s Page
The links on this page take you many places. There are many other links on the website that might help you.
Look for pictures of Little Flower on the pages. Sometimes she wears regular street clothes, other times she is wearing her regalia (special clothing). Here she is holding her Ambeson (baby carrier) from when she was a baby. Deer skin with tools, and a pot of soup.
Look for these pages to help you with your Native American projects: Lenape Page (History, Food & more); Book List; When the Shadbush Blooms – now a video with information on the book & an Activity page; Artwork; Celebrate November; Natural World/Conservation; Loan Words/Place Names; Native Foods in General; Native Inspired Poems by Children; Frog Poems by Children & Frog/Amphibian Information; Honey Bees; Susquehannock People; This Day/Month in Native History; and a Colonial Quiz on Authors/Colonial Quiz page.
Children touch, smell, read and ask questions about the exhibits. They make music, too!
