Junior History Buffs is a program at The Buffalo History Museum that engages children ages 4-9 in age-appropriate history lessons, songs, stories, crafts and games. A short program, or “Circle Time,” is instructor-guided and includes songs, a brief lesson about local history and a story. After this, self-guided activities can be enjoyed by the whole family such as a craft, interactive artifact explorations, and games related to the exhibits.

This program takes place every third Friday from 10AM to 2PM, with circle time at 10:30 a.m. This month, we will focus on the theme of Bravery and will celebrate the life and legacy of Margaret St. John, who saved her children when Buffalo was burned by British soldiers.

This free admission day is made possible through the generosity of M&T Bank.
