Go to the Prairie Village

Written by: Jordyn Lawyer, Age 7
We are on the train car.
These are all the building in the museum.
This is the olden day General Store.

Families should go to the Prairie Village. There are old buildings that show how people in the olden day lived. The Prairie Village is in Rugby, North Dakota and you have to drive an hour to get there. The buildings are cool. There is a church, a general store, a bank, a dining cart, a dress shop, a barn, a jail, a school house, two houses, an old cabin, and a dentist.

I like to play in the buildings. I like to pretend to play school in the school house and sit in the desk. I like to pretend to shop in the general store and I like to run in and out of all the buildings.

My favorite building is the Train Station. There are suitcases that you can carry. There is a train outside that you can go on and some chairs you can sit in. Also, there is a ticket place where you can get your tickets. There is a park across the street. You have to go through the Welcome Center to get to the buildings, but there is a gift shop in the Welcome Center.
You should really go there, it is really pretty.

This is a drawing I sat and drew while
we were there once. It’s the church.
