Holiday Traditions
Boone Youth Explorers December 13th | 10 am - 12 pm
Pack your imagination as we take a festive journey around the world to explore Christmas traditions from diverse cultures! This interactive event invites children to discover how countries near and far celebrate the season with unique customs and decorations. Through firsthand activities, storytelling, and crafts, young travelers will experience the magic of Christmas from a global perspective.

Creative Activities For Kids:
-Make your own wind-spinning toy
-Germany: Decorate paper gingerbread pop ups
-Sweden: Create a paper St. Lucia crown, decorating it with “candles” made from paper
-Japan: Cut a Kirigami Christmas Tree
-African: Kente Paper Weaving
-Mexico: Create a beautiful tissue paper poinsettia

Formerly known as our Free Family Event series, Boone Youth Explorers is our newly renamed monthly program designed to spark curiosity and connect kids with local history through hands-on experiences.
Thanks to generous support from Missouri Humanities, we’ve been able to expand this program and offer even more engaging activities that bring the past to life for young minds.
