Hands-on History

Hands-on History brings World War I to life through direct engagement with genuine artifacts. During this family-friendly program, visitors of all ages get the chance to handle authentic objects from the Great War, making history tangible and memorable. It's a wonderful way to help children understand this pivotal period by touching and exploring real pieces of the past rather than just viewing them behind glass. This interactive experience works well for families with curious kids who learn best through hands-on exploration. Whether your children are history enthusiasts or just getting started, the program welcomes all ages and interest levels. It's offered multiple times throughout August, so you have flexibility in planning your visit to the National WWI Museum and Memorial. NONE
