Bring your elementary school class to Cracker Country for an exceptional field trip sure to spark young student’s imagination.  As your class explores this unique outdoor living history museum, they experience how the daily lives of early Florida settlers revolved around chores, seasons, family, and community.

Cracker Country’s skilled interpreters immerse your students in the past so they discover what life was like for someone their age in the year 1898.  We engage, inspire, and educate your students using a variety of fun hands-on activities developed to appeal to their senses of touch, sound, sight, smell, and taste.

From an 1898 school lesson to dipping a candle to take home, your class probably never believed learning history would be this cool.  They just might think you’re cool too for bringing them for the experience.
