Wilton Historical Society Hosts Presidents’ Day Workshop for Kids

Wilton Historical Society Presidents’ Day Workshop for Kids: Presidents and US Currency on Saturday, February 18, 11:00am - 12:30pm

“Never spend your money before you have it” said Thomas Jefferson. A Presidents’ Day workshop for kids will explore the history of United States currency. The program will take place on Saturday, February 18 from 11:00 – 12:30 at the Wilton Historical Society. Museum Educator Lola Chen will be talking with the children about paper currency, coins and the many presidents represented on them. Taking President Thomas Jefferson’s admonition to heart, the workshop project will be to create a Mason jar savings bank, and think about taking the “365 Day Penny Challenge”. Includes snack.
