The miniature Pioneer Schoolhouse is reminiscent of the traditional one room schoolhouse that our grandparents attended. One of the largest log cabin kits, the Pioneer Schoolhouse has an attached entrance or cloakroom where students would have hung their coats, it also includes two detailed doors that open, wooden framed windows, flag, belfry, "Schoolhouse" sign, railed platform and non-toxic white glue for safe and convenient assembly. Remember the past and have fun putting together the Pioneer Schoolhouse.

The early settlers who came to North America were a very driven group of people, and entire families worked hard at making their new venture successful. They had escaped severe hardship in the country of their origin and were determined to succeed in this new soil. Pioneer families banded together for support and safety and together they tried to make their settlements flourish into villages and then into towns. They had a great appreciation for the value of education and they took great pains to ensure that their children were not deprived of this privilege. One of the first things they constructed, after houses and a church of course, was a pioneer schoolhouse.

Basic is the word best used to describe a pioneer schoolhouse because the early settlers did not have the resources to build more than that. They worked together to build a one room schoolhouse where a single schoolteacher taught the kids. Even the schoolteacher’s salary was paid for by the families who lived there because there was no other option for them since there was no system of education organized by the government in those days.
