History Kids Club -  Create Your Own Plaster Casting, 15 September | Event in Farmingdale | AllEvents.in About the event History Kids Club - Create Your Own Plaster Casting
Blast from the Past: Create your own furnace casting!

About this Event

History Kids Club is an interactive program that brings children and young adults into The Historic Village at Allaire to experience life in the past first hand! Every year from March to October, Club members learn what it was like to live and work in an industrial village like The Howell Iron Works by participating in historic crafts and activities. With opportunities ranging from basket-weaving to ore-raising, there’s something on for everyone in 2024!

History Kids Club is recommended for young people ages 5 to 13. Attendees must be accompanied by an adult chaperone. Get ready for a year of adventure and excitement as we dive into the past in this fun and educational program.

The mineral that mattered: Join our annual bog iron hunt!

Spend your day on the casting house floor at the Historic Village at Allaire! Cast iron was considered hot stuff in 1836 and The Howell Iron Works Company was the biggest producer of cast iron ware in New Jersey! But what is cast iron? How do we make it and what was it like to work at the base of the blast furnace? Team up with History Kids Club for a fun-filled, hands-on adventure to find these answers and more! Learn about the smelting process at our life-sized casting shed display, then trek to the base of our 1830s blast furnace to try out sand casting for yourself!

Tickets $12 per child
