Each girl got to pick a bonnet and apron at the beginning of the party.

A place setting.

The table and cake.

Making the bread dough.

Small hands kneading dough.

The mini loaves of bread, raising.

Here is the butter after the girls had shaken the jar for a very long time.

Making homemade strawberry freezer jam.

They ate some of the jam that we made during the party.

The small jars of jam for the girls to take home.

Some guests eating at the table.

Here is the game we played, The Clothes Pin Drop.

They went on a wagon ride.

Each girl took home a bag of old fashioned candy along with their mini bread loaf and their small jar of jam.

These adorable pictures were taken by the witty and charming Casey Hyer. For more posts about this party click on the American Girl Pioneer Party tag below.

Love this post! Thanks for this. I’ll be sure to come back again. P.S: I’ve bookmark your site as well.
Did you make the aprons and bonnets yourself? Did the girls get to keep them as favors?
Hey Becky–I bought the bonnets off of ebay and my mother in law kindly made the aprons for me since I couldn’t find any to buy that were what I wanted. I didn’t let the party guests keep them as favors, but if I did that party over again I would let the girls keep them.
