Fort Snelling


Fort Snelling has homeschool days on Fridays in September....this trip we learned about WWII...Here is Maybelle just before entering the fort....


This is on top of the tower, the fort is in the background

Here was the obstacle course....this soldier is on her belly, keeping her weapon out of the dirt!!!!

What a great experience...we learned how to censor letters, learned about morse code, how to swing dance, some Japanese words, made paper dolls, watched a rifle demonstration,...learned about rations, and life on the homefront.....even got inducted into the army!!!

Hi, great blog! Fort Snelling was fun and educational. I am glad you and the girls enjoyed it. My kids loved it more than the civil war day which is hard to beat!
