Traditions and celebrations of the different cultures that make up the Village provide a very special Christmas visit. Scottish, Irish, British and Pennsylvania-German influences can be seen in a traditional setting of 19th century homes, shops and community meeting places. Each child makes a traditional Christmas craft. Groups help to create a pomander, taste period treats, work at a printing press, try on pioneer winter clothes and play with old-style Christmas toys. Join in the spirit of the season at this fun filled visit to the Village.
