You Can Make History: What Shall I Wear Today?

by  Ohio History Connection

Program image

In this highly interactive and engaging program, students are introduced to the concepts of history by Arbuckle, a 200-year-old turtle puppet. In What Shall I Wear Today, students will learn about clothes on the Ohio frontier. Students will examine how children their own age dressed in the past, sources of material, and methods of production. By comparing and contrasting their lives today with that of early American settlers, students will build a foundation of understanding for history and how things change over time.
