On Memorial Day we went to De Smet, South Dakota, where five of the
“Little House on the Prairie” books took place. We’ve been reading the
series to the kids at bedtime, so they were very excited!
Checking out the first school of De Smet, which was attended by Laura & Carrie Ingalls
The kids had a great time dressing up as little pioneers
Lookout Tower overlooking Ingalls Homestead with Grandpa DJ
Sitting in a covered wagon
Pumping water
Ryan wanted to help, too
Washing clothes the old-fashioned way
Pony rides
Playing in the stagecoach
Kara said they were “going to a ball”
Time for school!
Everyone had a turn ringing the school bell.
What a fun day!
We highly recommend it for any Laura Ingalls Wilder fans!
