A trip down Rokeby's Red Trail brings us to a pond brimming with life and sounds. The chorus puts in mind some of Rowland E. Robinson's words on the changing of seasons:

🌻APRIL DAYS🐞

"At last there is full and complete assurance of spring, in spite of the baldness of the woods, the barrenness of the fields, bleak with sodden furrows of last year's plugging, or pallodly tawny with bleached grass, and untidy with the jetsam of winter storms...

...The woods throb with the muffled beat of the partridge's drum and the sharp tattoo of the woodpecker, and are filled again with the sounds of insect life, the spasmodic hum of flies, the droning monotone of bees busy among the catkins and squirrelcups..."

- Rowland E. Robinson, "In New England Field and Woods", 1896

Rokeby Museum was proud to be invited to speak with Dad Pod about our efforts to develop a racial learning curriculum for early education.

Education Programs Manager Jonathon Ahl sat down with @dadguild Patrick Lucey to discuss the difficulties of talking about race with young children and how Rokeby is working to give caretakers the support they need to have these conversations.
