years ago when I first came to this par of Massachusetts the Samuel Slater experience is a museum that documents everything Samuel Slater now this place is an absolute hit among the little ones the joy is just watching the kids if you you could come here and watch the class go through they go crazy it is so much fun to see the kids reaction you'll walk up on the ship and they'll be like you'll hear the jaw you'll literally hear their jaws dropping what makes the Slater experience wonderful is it
's interactive more than 60 days of this the ships tell stories allo as do the trolleys and the theaters I basically remember taking my kids to Disney and seeing the Hall of Presidents and I wanted to use that kind of technology to excite the children and let them leave here remembering everything they saw knowledge is power and the Samuel Slater experience is building fond memories I've had kids tell me this is the best field trip they've ever been on and I've got actual like cards and fan mail
from some of the local students saying how this is the best field trip they've been on it was awesome interaction here is the key as we were doing the interview I was getting dumped on by water because of simulation from the boat ride and then when the trolley started they were yelling all aboard and we stopped interview for a couple of minutes but LEM and Kate those little items make the Samu old Slater experience fantastic they keep the kids engaged and by doing that they retain and learn and
they hear Levan yell and they all pay attention yes Le gets them all in line they need to record your voice for that give you a little conductor's hat I don't want to scar children and and overalls too that are striped thank you l
