If you’re looking for Pioneer Day Activities, then look no more! Mariah has created a roundup of things to do, including crafts and snacks.

This month in Utah, we celebrate Pioneer Day on July 24th. Pioneer Day is an important day here in Utah and is a lot of fun! What is Pioneer Day exactly? Well, it’s a state holiday where we celebrate when Brigham Young and the first group of Mormon pioneers came into the Salt Lake Valley in 1847. The pioneers are a BIG part of Utah’s history and they stand as amazing examples of strength, dedication, faith, family, and courage. If you’re looking for some fun ways to teach your kids about the pioneers this Pioneer Day, look no further! Here are 17 activities and crafts that will help them learn about who the pioneers were and give them a taste of what their lives were like. Enjoy Pioneer Day!
