Continued development related to the activity:
Encourage the child to create a diorama or model of a medieval house using craft materials such as cardboard, popsicle sticks, and clay. This hands-on project will allow them to further explore the concepts they learned during the visit and enhance their understanding of medieval architecture and design. Additionally, they can research and write a short report on a specific medieval house or castle, delving deeper into its history, inhabitants, and unique features. This will help them develop their research and writing skills while expanding their knowledge of medieval history.
