Lenape Village

My girls went on their field trip today to the Lenape Village.

My question of "What did you see there?" brought forth tons of information. That is because I am sure what they saw at Lenape Village was more than they could grasp.

(1) Lenape Village is where they keep the Indians. Okay, that was so wrong on so many levels but it came from my 5 year old daughter so don't hold it against her.

(2) They built their houses from sticks.

(3) They sleep on animal skins. (5 year old wondering was the Disney store closed they could not find some decent blankets to use?)

(4) And they sleep on the floor. There are bugs on the floor why would someone sleep on the floor says my 5 year old.

(5) We saw Indian corn. They make cornmeal out of it.

(6) They eat meat too just like you, Daddy, Isabelle and Jonathan. I was puzzled until I realized that although she does eat chicken, fish and pork she does not consider it meat... Why I have no idea?

What did your child see at Lenape Village?

Ainsley LOVED the village and shared her adventure with us at dinner that night. She is already looking forward to her next bus ride...
