Theseus and the Labyrinth

History Club started up again last week and the topic was Theseus and the Labyrinth. What better way to explore the topic than to take a trip to a local corn maze? 

Before entering the actual maze the kids explored the corn stalk tunnel (LMS is pretending she's a bunny rabbit).

There was a small straw bale maze where we had the kids act out the story of Theseus and the Minotaur in the labyrinth. The yarn to guide them back got a bit tangled in the straw, but I think they got the idea.

(I stole this pic from C (thanks!), because for some reason I completely forgot to take pictures once we got started.)

This corn maze provided a map to help you find your way through, which really made the whole thing faster and easier, as long as you could keep track of where you really were. We didn't do too badly (we knew where we were most of the time), and had a great time.
