The Land of Pyramids and Pharaohs

Join an Egyptian adventure and become a young explorer. Hear a story of pharaohs and bustling temples, then don your Egyptologist hat to uncover tiny amulets hidden in plaster using gentle tools. Trace and paint hieroglyphs, feel the scratch of reed pens, and decorate a sheet of papyrus with bright colors. Move your hands, listen to the tale, and discover surprising shapes and symbols. Take your decorated papyrus and your finds home to show what you learned.
