Families can make a leaf rubbing, design a pressed leaf card, practice spinning and weaving, and grind corn. Take a step back in time with Colonial clothing, toys, and games. Tours of the house are on the hour. For directions and additional information, call 617-288-6041, or log on to www.historicnewengland.org. Free to Historic New England members, $2 non-members.
