VIRTUAL FIELD TRIP
Come join IDNR for a morning of stories and group games that capture the spirit of the children’s parties that historically took place in the house. Learn about two women, Susan Lawrence Dana and her best friend Leigh Gross Day, and how they entertained the children of Springfield. Children of all ages welcome and free of charge.
