Do you love everything about Ancient Egypt? Come spend time in Ancient Egypt in this interactive class We will explore the lives of the Ancient Egyptians - how they lived, what they ate, how they dressed, and more. We will learn how mummies were made and how the pyramids were built. We will learn to read and write hieroglyphics. During class, we will watch a short movie and then do a fun project related to that day's lessons.

Every class will include short movies and a hands-on activity.
