Description
Leap into history and hear a debate for the ages. Young historians and discerning debaters are encouraged to play a role in discussing stories of the past and how they influence the present at the birthplace of the United States. History will come to life and children will have a chance to explore different perspectives from 18th century Philadelpians while learning about the early days of the nation.
