Fire Without Matches

Kyleen Davis, Community Contributor

early peoples made fire helps us to understand its power, danger and
usefulness. Experiment with primitive tools like metal strikers and bow drills
to learn how precious a single spark can be. Children must be accompanied by an
adult.  301-962-1480, www.brooksidenature.org.
