Parshall Thu, 05 Feb 2009 13:38:44 +0000 http://www.keepapitchinin.org/?p=547#comment-6717 I was reading a Seagull book earlier this week! (Well, at least the teacher’s manual; I’m guessing you’re meaning you have the little diary or scrapbook or however you describe it?) This post is really the first of a contemplated series of “If you had been a Mormon boy/girl born in …” to highlight some of the activities and lessons of the past, especially when they leave behind delightful relics like logbooks and bandlos and the directions for unusual parties and games.

I also have my Lark, Bluebird, and Seagull Primary books.

It had plastic symbols which we got to glue on the felt when we passed a certain milestone. I do remember the pine tree.

I love to learn new things – thank you.

My dad was born in 1915 in Ogden, Utah, and he surely would have fully participated in this program. He always loved this sort of thing. Thank you for the sweet memories.
