Whitehern Historic House and Garden
As the White Herns! Jerry visits Whitehern Historic House & Garden in Hamilton
Jerry Muskrat is walking while on the phone with his mother (bad idea, Jerry!) when he literally stumbles onto the grounds of Whitehern Historic House & Garden National Historic Site! At Whitehern, Jerry watches the soap-opera story of the McQuesten Family. Mary Baker McQuesten was a single mother – a widow who raised her six children here. But for one reason or another, none of her children ever got married or had children... so in the end, no one inherited this stately home!
Special note: Kidoons created this episode and filmed on location with the help of curators of the Whitehern Historic House & Garden National Historic Site in Hamilton, Ontario.

VISITor in Hamilton Children's Museum (08/2016)
The Hamilton Children’s Museum invites young visitors to stretch their imagination as they touch, build and experiment in a friendly, child-focused setting. Home to interactive, hands-on galleries, the museum encourages learning through self-directed play.
Newly renovated gallery exhibits take their inspiration from Hamilton’s natural landscape and how it is used by people and other living things:
The Summers Theatre Stage, inspired by the popular theatre that once sat atop Wentworth Street incline railway on the escarpment
The Building Gallery, featuring Gage Park and its transformation from family orchard to urban greenspace
The Ship Gallery, featuring above and below deck activities, including a galley kitchen, a cargo boom and a musical ship whistle
Housed in an 1875 farmhouse in beautiful Gage Park, the museum was once home to Hamilton’s Gage Family. It has been providing family-friendly learning opportunities to the public for more than 30 years.
