…you’ll be pleased to know that field trips don’t have to be expensive.
Since East Texas was the cradle of colonization, several of our earliest historical sites are preserved through state parks or universities in your area.
Try:
- Caddo Mounds near Alto
- Mission Tejas State Park in Grapeland
- the Stone Fort Museum and El Camino Real exhibit at Stephen F. Austin State University in Nacogdoches
- the Audie Murphy American Cotton Museum in Greenville
- or the East Texas Oil Museum in Kilgore
I’ve collected field trip ideas for every region of Texas in my Family Field Trip Guide. You’re welcome to save a copy for easy reference.
And if you’d like to immerse your family in our fun and unique way of experiencing Texas History with our Discover Texas History curriculum, I have a 10% off coupon to help you get started.
