SUMMARY:Pudd’nheads: Childhood In Colonial America – Virtual Lecture (New Date)
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, February 3\, 2022 at 5:30pm via ZoomTickets: $5.00 per household \n\n\n\nBuy Tickets\n\n\n\nThe Zoom link will be included at the bottom of your confirmation email under Additional Details. The Zoom link will also be posted on the Online Event page on Eventbrite and emailed to you 24 hours and 1 hour before the event. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPudd’nheads: Childhood In Colonial America Examines The Unique Aspects Of Childhood Between The Late Sixteenth And Late Eighteenth Centuries. The Presentation Explores Birthing And Childrearing Practices\, Parenting\, Children’s Health And Education\, Naming\, Gender\, Play\, And Rites Of Passage. \n\n\n\nPudd’nheads provides fresh historical perspectives on key features of children’s lives. Without a doubt\, the lives of Native American children\, Enslaved children\, and Puritan children differed greatly. Velya Jancz-Urban – author\, teacher\, and creator of The Not-So-Good Life of the Colonial Goodwife – has partnered with her herbalist daughter\, Ehris Urban\, on this unique presentation. Pudd’nheads: Childhood in Colonial America is similar to The Not-So-Good Life of the Colonial Goodwife in that it is funny\, sad\, sweet\, and shocking.  \n\n\n\nThis program is in conjunction with the Norwalk Historical Society’s new exhibit\, “Norwalk’s Changing Communities – 13\,000BC – 1835”\, which was funded in part by grants from Connecticut Humanities and the City of Norwalk Historical Commission. \n\n\n\nAbout the Presenters:\n\n\n\nEhris Urban\, owner of Woodbury\, CT’s Grounded Holistic Wellness\, believes\, “if you’re grounded\, you can navigate even the bumpiest roads in peace.” She grew up in a family passionate about holistic medicine. Ehris is a green witch\, herbalist\, holistic nutritionist\, and graduate of the New England School of Homeopathy. Additionally\, Ehris is a Flower Essence Therapy practitioner. She became interested in Reiki as a teenager and attained Reiki Master certification at age 17. Ehris is also a certified Ingham Method reflexologist. A graduate of Western Connecticut State University with a B.A. in Anthropology/Sociology\, she is also a certified ESL teacher. Ehris enjoys beekeeping\, tending her organic vegetable and herb gardens\, and working in her apothecary. \n\n\n\nVelya Jancz-Urban lives her life by the adage\, “there is no growth without change.” Zany and gregarious\, she is a teacher\, author\, former Brazilian dairy farm owner\, and herstory unsanitized expert. Moving into a 1770 Connecticut farmhouse ignited Velya’s obsession with the colonial era\, and led to her entertainingly-informative presentation\, The Not-So-Good Life of the Colonial Goodwife. She has been married to Jim for 38 years and is the mother of two grown children. Velya has a few too many rescue dogs and cats\, is happiest with a fresh stack of library books\, loves thrift shops\, and is passionate about alternative medicine. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Norwalk Historical Society is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. To Donate or become a Member\, visit this page on our website. \n\n\n\nMake sure to follow us on Facebook @NorwalkHistSoc and on Instagram at @norwalkhistoricalsociety for all the updates. \n\n\n\nRefund Policy:\n\n\n\nAll ticket purchases are non-refundable\, except when the event is cancelled by the Norwalk Historical Society. No credit or refund is available if you do not show up; or if you leave an event early for any reason. No refund will be available if you attend a program and are dissatisfied with its presentation or content.
