In conjunction with our current exhibition, Greenwich During the Revolutionary War: A Frontier Town on the Front Line, the Time Travelers KidStudio returns through June 2025! Step back in time and learn how kids lived in Greenwich 250 years ago. Every Wednesday and Saturday afternoon will feature a new guided craft or activity inspired by the colonial era. Children up to age 12 are welcome to attend with an accompanying adult.

On Saturday, May 3, the KidStudio will offer butter making! Without refrigerators and big grocery stores, people in the 1700s had to make their own butter from scratch. Come learn how butter was made in the past, and try your hand at making your own delicious homemade butter.
