Anthony and I did something fun last weekend! We went to the American Indian Festival at the NC Museum of History in Raleigh. I can't tell how much fun it was for just me and my youngest to get out and spend some time together learning about the native American Indians. We saw several of their tribal dancing complete with live singing and music. Anthony tried his hand at some games that they had set up, made a coil bowl, watched several demonstrations on arrows and baskets being made, along with a table filled with how animals were trapped. They even had a live demo on making a dug out canoe. There were lots to see and do at the festival I especially loved seeing and hearing all the stories of what the attire that the dancers and others were wearing symbolized. We played several
nature games online when we went back home, along with Anthony trying out his bow and arrow that he made! Well it was raining when we got home so he tried it out in his room! Needless to say there are a couple holes that we have to fill in his wall! He now knows something that I thought was a given, no bow and arrow in the HOUSE!
