Farragut Museum has produced a Kids Activity Book
Farragut Museum has produced a Kids Activity Book designed for elementary- aged children to teach them about the Town ‘s community and government. Activities, such as connect the dots, word searches, crossword puzzles and find-and-circle, are included in the book. Pages on history are dedicated to the importance of Admiral Farragut, the story of the Campbell Station Inn and items in the Museum. The book also details local special events, Farragut parks and public safety.
Kids Activity Book “is a way to make history fun and engaging and to educate on the role of local government,” a Town press release stated. “All kids touring the Museum will receive a book. They also can be picked up at Farragut Community Center and at special events.
“Summer is a great time to bring your kids to the Farragut Museum,” said Kristi Vining, Town of Farragut Historic Resources coordinator. “Children can learn about local history at the Museum, the Admiral Farragut Memorial Plaza, Farragut’s birthplace marker and the Civil War Trail marker — all on the grounds at Town Hall.
“There is also a fun playground at Town Hall,” she added. “During the school year, we always welcome field trips.”
