Dike workers

Put on your boots and climb onto the dike. By hoisting, pulling, pushing, and turning, students in grades 1 and 2 battle the water like real dike workers. So roll up your sleeves and get your feet in the mud. An active first introduction to life below sea level and the power of the Netherlands, a land of water.
