What We’ve Been Up To;
Education is at the heart of the museum’s mission. The pandemic situation has caused us to shift much of our
educational efforts to an online format. This has benefits that will likely, forever forward, have us continuing, at least in
part, in this manner. There are drawbacks, as well; mainly that we don’t get to meet our visitors.
Please enjoy the following, currently available on our website. If you can, take a minute to send us an email with
constructive feedback, questions, and requests. Above all, thank you for your virtual visit!
There are also several fun crafts to try, each with a bit of history to go along;
Make a Packhorse Train — A print and assemble craft that explains the transportation
system that gave Elizabethtown it’s earliest start.
Natural dyes — Use natural materials to create dyes. Here we dye eggs, but the same dyes,
with a teaspoon of alum, will work on fabrics, too!
Felting — Make a handy felted soap bar pouch from an old wool sweater or sock.
Embroidery — learn to embroider with these fun and easy patterns.
Scherenschnitte — Practice the Pennsylvania German art of Scissors cutting!
Make a Conestoga Wagon — A fun craft model you can print from your computer and
build together with your child!
In addition to our Summer Crafts and History Science releases, we have included some of our favorite historic and
summer-time recipes. Be sure to visit and enjoy...! www.ElizabethtownHistory.org
