Description
Gettysburg National Military Park is again offering a free Winter Reading Adventures program for children ages 4 to 10 and their families, every Saturday at 11:00 a.m. from January 8 through February 26 in one of the museum’s theaters. Our 2022 Winter Reading Adventures theme is: "True Tales & Trailblazers from American History" with a new children's book featured each week (with pages on the big screen) ranging in subject and time period from Thomas Jefferson to Lin-Manuel Miranda, from Abigail Adams to Lucille Ball and more! Each featured book and person (and one historic dog!) are TRUE stories about invididuals blazing new trails, both literally and figuratively. Short activities or family adventure instructions will follow each book. “Our Winter Reading Adventures program is for kids who are learning to read or love to read, and want to spend part of their Saturdays time traveling back and forth between all eras of our history -- from the 18th century right up to last Friday!" explained Education Ranger, John Hoptak.
