Kids love the Village where they can enjoy the outdoors, discover, interact and just plain have fun. The Hands-On History Centre, located in the Dominion Carriage Works, was created especially for kids where they can try traditional trades and pioneer survival skills like building a log cabin, fashioning a bucket, and weaving cloth. Admission to the centre is FREE with Village admission. Click here for more information about what's on at Black Creek.
