Lauren and I have been reading a book called The Sign of the Beaver for history. I didn't realize how much she was enjoying it until a few days ago when a Native American village began to take shape in our yard.
Jacob helped her to make a bow and some arrows from some small branches. She also fashioned a spear and began collecting wood for a fire and another tepee.
She asked me to bring my camera outside and take photos of her. I certainly wasn't going to say no.
I love it when my children make learning an adventure.
Lauren now has a tarp around her tepee, a fire pit, another tepee under construction, and all the amenities she may need as she acts this time in history out.
Linked up with Melissa for Friday Photo Journal at Serendipity is Sweet.
I love how the stories of history can have such a powerful impact on us and our imagination.
