Townsends Youtube Videos-Breakfast Video Recommendation

I am hooked on this youtube channel.  If you have any interest in how the colonists and pioneers lived back in the 18th century, this is your channel.  The host Don Townsend actually runs a store for living history re-enactors. He loves to try to cook the way they did back then and decipher the recipes so we can see (and he can taste!) how the food really was prepared with all the steps that went into it all.  But he also talks about every aspect of life back then from being a sailor on a ship, to camping out in the wilderness.  Usually, at least once a week he puts up a video. Every Friday he has a live stream which I guess goes on for an hour or more - that might not be so kid friendly.  Not because the topics are un-family friendly.  Don's a super nice, sweet guy.  But the format, while amusing and interesting to adults, might not please children as much.  But the regular videos will probably really appeal to kids.  And I, as an adult woman, find the whole thing so fascinating.  He's just done a 4 part series on how they did laundry in the 18th century and it is incredibly interesting!!!!

So check out this channel!  I wish I was still homeschooling my kids and we were about to embark on a through American history.  This would be a great supplement.
