Nothing like young, delighted faces!
And hopefully, the young will learn a little history too! In addition to colonial reenactors, and living historians demonstrating their crafts, children can test their skills at coconut shye, hoops and graces.
Coconut Shy
Ah, the virtues of hard fruit. The colonial militia use fruit, in particular coconuts, for throwing practice. See if you can knock a coconut off the stand. If you do, you win a prize. Price? 3 tosses for a dollar.
Hoops
Test your skills at rolling a hoop with a stick.
Graces
Find out what two people can do with 4 sticks and 1 hoop. Grab your friend and try it out.
