Valley Forge







Colby has a really awesome teacher, he is known for his re-enactments of different battles throughout history. I loved the idea of Valley Forge day, the kids had to roll dice to see who had go barefoot (for a few minutes), take off your boots, take off your coat or if you were killed. The kids made their own forts and toasted bread over fire then marched off to "battle". I thought it was a pretty cool idea, and they picked a good day, it was actually over 20 degrees!
