I recently visited an area nearby where a lot of Amish live and noticed clotheslines. The invention of the dryer had an effect but then my daughter attended a ''green'' university in California and they encouraged air drying clothing. They didn't have many dryers in their laundry room! Love the activities too. Keila V.

It would be fun to use it in subsequent grades to show the kids how their age and experiences may change their thoughts about dreams.
