MaKenna came home from school a few weeks ago and said she had to do a research project on a famous Colorado person. Her person was - Molly Brown. I instantly got excited and called for a Family Movie Night. We watched the Unsinkable Molly Brown (compliments of Amazon Prime). I enjoyed it and loved watching it again after so many years. The boys thought it was "funny" and MaKenna said it was ok. She watched it to learn about Molly - I had to make sure she knew that most of it was probably made up and not real. It gave her something to compare against as she did her research. We were able to go and do some on-site research at the Molly Brown House in Denver. We had a great time.
Today was the big presentation day. She had to dress up like Molly and show at least 5 items that related to their person. The 1st picture we took at the Molly Brown House in Denver, the others are from her presentation today. When I asked MaKenna which Molly Brown she wanted to dress up like - the one before gold or the one after gold. She quickly responded - the rich one!
