Date/Time
Date(s) - 06/12/2022
10:00 am - 11:30 am

Ages: 5-7

Cost: $8/learner

Join other local home schoolers and distance learners in this special in-person session of Yesteryear Christmas.  

Journey back through time and experience Christmas a hundred years ago. Students will explore toys and games of yesteryear, learn different winter traditions and celebrations, and listen to a Christmas story. Due to ongoing construction, students will see how a typical mining family lived and celebrated the season with a virtual Miner’s Cottage tour, supported by interactive artifacts. Students will make a seasonal craft item to take home and will also enjoy festive goodies to eat.

This is a 90-minute, in-person program that takes place at Nanaimo Museum.  

Are you a teacher? This program is also available to book for up to three K-3 classes together, from November 30-December 15th! Visit the Yesteryear Christmas School Program page for more info, and to book.
