Philly moms, looking for an educational and fun activity for the kids? Head to the African American Museum in Philadelphia (AAMP) for their Family Fun Day: History Is Alive! on Sunday, October 13th from 1 PM to 3 PM. This special event will include a Sojourner Truth Storytime, giving families the chance to experience history in an engaging and interactive way.
Sojourner Truth, a powerful voice for abolition and women's rights, will be brought to life through storytelling and activities, perfect for teaching children about the importance of history, justice, and equality. This is a great opportunity to expose your children to African American history in a way that’s both fun and impactful.
With free admission included with your museum ticket, this is a perfect way to spend a Sunday afternoon learning and bonding as a family. After the storytime, be sure to explore the museum’s exhibits to further immerse yourselves in the rich history of African American culture.
