Our 4th grade students had an unforgettable day of hands-on learning and fun at Landrum’s Homestead & Village! Students stepped back in time and enjoyed a variety of exciting activities, including gem mining, exploring a maze and fun house, and taking a relaxing wagon ride. They also had the opportunity to interact with farm animals and even feed the fish! As they walked through the village, students explored antique machines and historic buildings, bringing history to life right before their eyes. They also got to experience delicious treats like wood fire baked biscuits, homemade ice cream, hand-dipped corn dogs, and refreshing lemonade. Of course, there was plenty of time for fun and games too—corn hole, seesaws, and lots of laughter filled the day! We are so proud of our students for representing Forest so well and making the most of this exciting learning experience! ❤️💙🐾
