Once every three years the Honey Springs Battlefield has a re-enactment of the civil war battle that took place there.

The day before the re-enactment they had an educational day!

Most people that know me are aware that I am pretty passionate about history.

In fact I leave it as one of the last subjects of the day I teach so I do not spend the whole day on it!

I feel like I am surrounded by like minded people at these history events!

A couple other homeschool mom’s came with me to this event.

Here is my friend Stephanie helping to demonstrate a game that would have been played at that time.

We offered her because she has girls (at least that is the best excuse I could think of).

The boys kept trying to hide from the smoke coming from the blacksmiths fire.

Everyone was nice and very patient!

We saw a lot of the same people that had been at the Homeschool Day at the History center!

I love introducing my kids to history at a young age.

Of course boys hate learning about hero’s and battles.

So difficult to get them into weapons…

And don’t even get me started at how much they hated the loud booms made by the guns.

They suffer through it because they love me so much no doubt.
