Monsters, monsters everywhere. Mini monsters, massive monsters, you’re in for a scare. Head to the house to make monster stew. A delightful recipe that’s fun to do. Go to the garden and make lanterns with Scarecrow, then sit down for a story and a monster puppet show! Over in the boat you’ll find the kraken, with that kind of monster who knows what will happen.  Up in the classroom it’s time for a search, you see there’s a monster that’s stuck in a lurch. He’s left tracks all over for you to find, with big tracks of big feet what does that bring to mind? With hard work and talent I’m sure you will see him, so dress up and come down to Main Street Children’s Museum.

Such a wonderful way to learn history! Everyone who worked and volunteered at Brattonsville was patient, kind, and answered all of the kids’ questions. We look forward to going back soon!
