Pioneer Children sang as they Walked

 

This is my Mimi at her 4th grade field trip this year at This is the Place State Park. I was lucky enough to get to be a parent helper and really enjoyed spending this time with my girl. While there they learned about what it was like for the pioneer children who came to Utah to live in the 1800's.  We went to a schoolhouse and learned about the Deseret Alphabet, how animal hides were used and very valuable to the pioneers and many more things.  They even got to pull a handcart to see what it might have felt like to travel so far carrying only a few of your most precious belongings. Mikayla has had a fun year and really looking forward to her summer.
