Abi's Midieval Feast

I got to help with Abi's Medieval feast. It was a really fun 6th grade activity and lots of learning in the process.
I was in charge of the decorations for the event. Luckily I had a some other moms to help out. THANKS!!!
We made the brick wall behind the kings and queens.
All the table decor.
Luckily we had some volunteer gourds in the garden this summer so for two years now we are still using these gourds. My husband has promised never to plant them again and it doesn't look like we will have too they will just come up on their own.
This activity was fun they put a doughnut on and string and hung it from the top of the ladder. Then the Knight would ride on his horse, aka cart, and try to put the lance, aka stick, through the center of the doughnut.
It was very good entertainment for the lords and ladies and kings and queens.
Here is Abi our very own Jester! I am not sure that Jesters had balloons in the Medieval times, but she was a great modern day jester!!!
Abi and her teacher.
One of the funniest kids in Abi's class. He made a great Knight!!!
Notice his feather on top of his helmet.
Classic!!!!
Very fun to be part of.
