My son planted a time capsule at the school where he works.
In this time capsule he put some of the childrens art work and drawings,
some stories that the children had written and some personal things that the children had brought in especially to put into the capsule for fun.
Then they buried the capsule (which was a biscuit tin) in the school grounds and they all hope in many years to come that it will get found by someone digging in that area.
What would you put in your time capsule?.....photos?letters?..anything extra special?

That is a great idea I bet the kids liked that? I would put in a capsule, Pictures of my family the house I live in the car I drive my pets. Pictures of the area where I live the woodlands the sea and beach. I would want to be able to show the people in the future what it was like for us. Maybe there will not be houses like we have now, or cars or buses, or the sea or beach. All we have may be burried thousand of feet below them so it would be great History for them to find out what we were like and what we had. Great post?
