About This Video

Your kids will learn about the westward expansion of America during the 1800s and get to make their very own DIY corn husk doll in this episode of Craftory. Life was tough for the pioneers who headed west, and they didn’t always get along with the Native Americans, but the settlers also learned to trade customs and skills to survive, including how to make a corn husk doll—a Native American tradition with a wise lesson.
