Bring a friend to a tea party

Description

Kids are invited to bring a friend to play parlor games and enjoy a cup of tea at 10 am on Saturday, May 4^th, at the St. Lawrence County Historical Association, located at 3 E. Main St. in Canton.
 
The habit of taking tea in the afternoon arose as the fashionable dinner hour was pushed later and later in the evening, and a light meal had to be added between lunch and dinner. On May 4^th, kids have the opportunity to partake in their own tea party, play some nineteenth century parlor games, cut out paper dolls, learn how to make and drink a proper cup of tea, and then share a refreshing cup of tea or apple juice and treats. In addition to parents, grandparents, and other caregivers, kids are encouraged to bring a friend – whether a live person, a favorite doll or stuffed animal – to share in the fun of this free program!
