Potatoes....

Well,
A Girl Potato and Boy Potato had eyes for each other,

And finally they got married, and had a
little sweet Potato,which they called 'Yam.'


Of course, they wanted the best for
Yam.

When it was time, they told her about the facts Of life.

They warned her about going
Out and getting
Half-baked, so she wouldn't get accidentally mashed, and
Get a bad name for herself like 'Hot Potato,' and
End up with a bunch of tater tots

Yam said not to worry, no Spud would get Her into the sack and make a rotten potato out of her! But on the other hand she wouldn't stay home and become a Couch Potato either.

She would get plenty of exercise so as
not to be skinny like her shoestring cousins.

When she went off to Europe,
Mr. And Mrs. Potato told Yam
To watch out

For the hard-boiled guys from Ireland and the greasy guys from France called the French fries. And when she went out West, to Watch out for the Indians so she wouldn't get scalloped...

Yam said she would stay on the
straight and Narrow and would not
associate with those high class Yukon Golds, or the ones from the other side of the tracks who advertise their trade on all The trucks that say,

'Frito Lay.'

Mr. And Mrs. Potato sent Yam to Idaho P.U. (that's Potato University ) so that when she graduated she'd really be in the Chips.

But in spite of all they did for
Her, one-day Yam came home
And announced she was
Going to marry Tom Brokaw.


Tom Brokaw!
Mr. And Mrs. Potato were very upset.

They told Yam she couldn't
Possibly marry Tom Brokaw because he's just......

Are you
Ready for this?
Are You sure?
OK! Here it is!

Indoor, stay at home activity.

Here's a moccasin-making activity from our Indigenous Wisdom curriculum. You can use paper, felt, leather, or whatever you have around the house. This particular activity is from the 2nd–3rd grade math lesson.

With our museum closed, and many families now seeking educational resources and activities due to closed schools, we invite you to download our FREE “Indigenous Wisdom” K–12 curriculum, which includes several fun and engaging STEM activities (including cooking). The curriculum has easy-to-follow lesson plans for Math, Language Arts, Social Studies, and Science, plus plenty of activities that can be done with common household items. The plans also include convenient links and reading lists. We hope you enjoy this fun and educational resource, and invite you to let us know what projects and materials you and your family like best.

If you like and use our curriculum, please consider making a small donation. Admission to the IPCC museum is a key source of funding for our nonprofit institution. Since we had to temporarily close our museum due to the COVID-19 public health emergency, we would appreciate any donation you can make to IPCC. As always, we appreciate your support and recognize how important you are to helping us achieve our mission of preserving and perpetuating Pueblo culture.
