## About

Homeschool Adventures at the Alden House Historic Site explores the lives of Mayflower passengers John and Priscilla Alden and their family. Designed to support homeschool history and social studies, the program includes a kid-focused tour of the historic house, an outdoor scavenger hunt, a hands-on craft and a new hearth-cooking experience at a reproduction colonial hearth. It suits students ages 6 to 12, and registration is required because space is limited.
