I found myself especially interested in the things that define my daily life these days: home, food, and children:
A simple and practical kitchen set-up:
Watermelons stored up in the attic (in November? I'll have to try that!):
A sweet sleeping corner that reminded me of Laura and Mary:
A trundle bed:
A beautiful baby's bed to keep out the drafts:
A potty seat sized just right for toddlers (fascinating from an EC perspective--no preschooler would fit in this chair):
A cozy scene by the fire with knitting and toys:
A beautiful, tiny, child's desk under a window:
There was lots to engage Lucy, too. Her special request was a ride on the stagecoach:
"Horses! Me in?"
She tried out a butter churn:
And even got to "milk" a "cow."
I really look forward to future visits; a homeschooler's haven, I think!

I love Sturbridge. They have homeschooling days several times a year at a deep discount. My favorite place is the farm.
That was sweet. I have never been there. Hmmm... looks like a great place for a homeschooling field trip.
we're going to have to go there...we drive by every time we go to visit my family and talk about going, but never actually stop...we have that need to get to the destination after 12 hours in the car.
What a neat place!
We lived in an 1890's heritage town as caretakers and that was one of my best summers ever.
That little sleep-nook is SO Laura and Mary! You took the words right outta my mouth. :)
Looks like fun!
