Visiting Vantaa City Museum in April

I learned a lot about history of Vantaa city on  a museum visit with 6th graders. I loved that the museum docent let me try on a squirrel's fur that they used "like money" in the old days-for once I was warm. The name of the exhibition was "Our Story from Helsinge to Vantaa". "Helsinge" refers to our capital Helsinki nowadays and I learned that the city's history actually originates from my recent hometown Vantaa that is located just next to Helsinki
