LET IT SNOW!

Come to Ormiston Mansion on  Sunday January 5 for our first Sunday Funday of 2025. Our featured book will be Snowflake Bentley, by Jacqueline Briggs Martin.  It’s about a boy who loved nature and figured out how to photograph snowflakes.  He made over 2500 photographs of snowflakes and discovered they all had SIX POINTS! This book is required reading in elementary schools in Vermont, where Bentley lived and grew up.

We will take a winter walk down the Boxer Trail, looking for signs of winter and spring. Then we will come inside and learn how to cut and fold our own SIX-POINTED snowflakes!  Text Claire at 215-771-0046 for more info.  Tell us if you are coming so we have enough snacks and materials.
