Kids Only Workshop: A Look at Children's Games Through History

Throughout history and prehistory, children have played games. Using reproductions of pre-historic board games from ancient Mesopotamia, Native American children's gaming pieces, colonial children's board games, and actual board games from the 20 th century, you will play your way through history. If the weather permits, we will also go outside to play some Native American and colonial outdoor games. See how these games compare to video games that you may play at home today!

Presented by the Connecticut State Museum of Natural History and Connecticut Archaeology Center, part of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences at UConn. 860-486-4460 - www.mnh.uconn.edu.
