The Glebe House Museum to Host a Homeschool Day
The Glebe House Museum, 49 Hollow Road, Woodbury, Connecticut, invites homeschooled children ages 6-17 to an engaging and educational Homeschool Day on Tuesday, May 20, 2025, from 9:30 AM to 12:30 PM. A rain date of Wednesday, May 21, 2025, has been scheduled.
This unique event offers separate, age-appropriate programs designed to immerse children in history and provide hands-on learning experiences.
Older children (12-17) will embark on a comprehensive journey through the past with a full house tour that delves into the lives of those who once resided within the Glebe House’s walls. They will also participate in an archaeological dig, where they can uncover artifacts and learn about the techniques used by archaeologists. A walking tour of Hollow Road and the cemetery will provide insights into the local history and genealogy, while interactive historical stations will allow for a deeper exploration of specific aspects of life in bygone eras.
Younger children (6-11) will enjoy a range of activities tailored to their age group. Artifact exploration will spark curiosity and imagination, while a hornbook craft will offer a hands-on opportunity to create a historical learning tool. A first-floor house tour will introduce them to the Glebe House, and storytelling sessions will bring history to life. Interactive stations with quill writing and games will further enhance their understanding of the past.
The Homeschool Day provides a unique and enriching educational experience for homeschooled children. Pre-registration, with payment, is required at least two weeks before the event to secure a spot. The cost is $15 per child, and parent or guardian accompaniment is mandatory. Chaperones are free.
For more information and to register, please visit the Glebe House Museum website at www.glebehousemuseum.org or contact the Director at office@glebehousemuseum.org.
All proceeds from this event directly benefit the Glebe House Museum & Gertrude Jekyll Garden.
