June 25 Homeschool Day 

Join us for our June Home School Day on Wednesday, June 25! Home School Days offer you and your family the opportunity to explore the Village and participate in activities. This is a great opportunity for kids to gain exposure to many aspects of 1830s New England life in an interactive way. During this Home School Day, activities will focus on cows and dairying in honor of the Village’s Cow Parade! Make a receipt with milk and butter, craft a beautiful bovine from fabric and tin, or plant a bean with spots.  

In the Village, participate in a fun game or competition as part of OSV’s Family Field Days! 

Register for one of the in-person programs with the Village’s knowledgeable staff or explore the Village on your own using self-guides, scavenger hunts, and more. All activities will take place at Museum Education, unless otherwise noted.
