Colonial Williamsburg’s New, Interactive Summer Programs Engage and Entertain

Special Ticket Offers and Online Savings Available for Families

Colonial Williamsburg’s introduction of “A Kid’s Summer Program,” encompassing various family-oriented events and activities, ensures that children of all ages can interact and engage with the stories of history during summer vacation. From June 21-August 22, visitors to Colonial Williamsburg’s Historic Area can play games, explore 18th-century career paths, try their hands at chores of the 18th century, and more.

Interactive family programming includes:

-          Tours and games at the Benjamin Powell House, Colonial Williamsburg’s premier family site.

-          Native American Storytelling and Games of Chance and Competition at the Geddy House; programs begin on Palace Green and end in the Geddy House Orchard.

-          The Apprentice! Tour, during which families visit three trade shops, children decide what they want to be when they grow up, and sign an apprenticeship contract.

-          Let’s Go to the Farm: at Great Hopes Plantation children help work the crops, draw and carry water, assist with building construction, and learn about the life of 18th-century small farmers and their enslaved workers.

-          Mother Goose’s Riddles and Rhymes Tour and Read me a Story!, for children ages three to seven at the Benjamin Powell House.

-          Aesop’s Fables Stick-Puppet Plays for the Young and Curious, at the Geddy House.

Other Historic Area sites that are part of “A Kid’s Summer Program” include the Gaol (Jail), the popular Revolutionary City® program, the Wythe House and the Magazine.

At the Colonial Williamsburg Art Museums, family guides for many of the exhibits, and “Teen Takes” audio tour written by teens for teens are available every day.
