About
Around a table at the Museu de Lisboa's Teatro Romano, kids find out what Romans ate and drank on feast days, and learn about Saturnalia, a Roman festival with a few things in common with Christmas. Then it turns hands-on: inspired by those traditions, everyone makes cookies. A good fit for curious kids who like their history with something to do with their hands.
