Look at the letter my children received in the mail last week! They were so excited! 
The kids had to decide what they might take for a long trip NOW. We had all kinds of interesting things we were bringing.
After we discussed what we would like to bring with us, we talked about what the Pilgrims actually did bring. Mrs. Linda had a scavenger hunt prepared with clues to some of the items that the Pilgrims may have had with them. The kids had a lot of fun finding a Bible, dishes, candles, fabric, seeds for planting, and several other items.
This was a fun activity that is sure to help the kids remember the Mayflower and what a desperate situation they were in after many long days aboard a ship. We are really enjoying making history come alive this year!! I am learning so much, probably more than my kids are learning!!
