(STURBRIDGE, MA) - April 23, 2010: Moms get free admission to Old Sturbridge Village on Mother’s Day, Sunday May 9, and family events are planned throughout the weekend. Each mother will receive a free Village-made cookie cutter with historical cookie recipe, while supplies last, and a raffle ticket for a chance to win scented geraniums in a Redware pot made by OSV potters.
Children can meet the baby animals on the farm, and enjoy indoor crafts, including making block printed note cards for a Mother’s Day gift. Moms can gain insights on childbirth, raising children and running a frugal household from OSV costumed historians portraying Midwife Lucy Tucker and 19th century author Lydia Maria Child, who wrote The Mother’s Book.
OSV horticulturists will present “The Family Nurse’s Tour of the Herb Garden” and a special Mother’s Day Brunch will be served in the Oliver Wight Tavern (reservations required). For times and details: http://www.osv.org/ or call 1-800-733-1830.
