Some friends took us to Conner Prairie - a village set up like it was from 1836. The people talked and dressed like they were living in that year. Regina was determined to stump them and she asked one lady if she had a cell phone. The lady said, "I've never heard of those before." The characters played their roles very well. The children had a lot of hands on activities and learned a lot about history that day.
Thanks a bunch to the friends who made this possible!
In the village, the children got to.......
Run a shave horse. It was used to clamp wood to work on it. 
Play an Indian game of throwing Tomahawks at a piece of wood.
Milk a pretend cow. 
Pet the animals in a barn.
