Make your own ranch-style scrambled eggs and cook up a batch of delicious sourdough flapjacks. Paint an Acoma bowl, build a model pueblo, make a pioneer cap to wear, or weave a basket from a few simple materials. You can twist together a lariat to wear as a belt, or practice knot tying—that is, if you have time after the mustang-and-cowboys board game or the party piņata project.
Wild West Days is filled with interesting historical information and fun facts about growing up in days gone by. Discover how different—and how similar—life was for American kids in history.
