Today, as part of our History topic, we took a step back in time and looked at a range of tools that were used in the early 1900's and in some cases even earlier! These included a range of toys such as yoyos, marbles, spinning tops and pick up sticks. There was a cast iron, baking utensils and washing board. My personal favourite was when we tried to write with fountain pens and ink - right handed only! It was incredible to see just how much skill was needed to write 'back in the day'.
It was a really fun, interactive activity that we all had a lot of fun participating in!
