For over 10,000 years, Native peoples thrived here, moving with the seasons, crafting tools from stone, and forming vibrant cultures.From Dutch explorers and English settlers to fierce battles like the Pequot War and pivotal moments in the American Revolution, Connecticut’s story is one of resilience, innovation, and influence.This state gave us the first submarine used in battle, the hamburger, PEZ, Polaroid cameras, and even the bouncing pickle law! With stunning fall foliage, the historic Yale University, and a legacy in manufacturing and aerospace, Connecticut has shaped America in more ways than one.Let’s dive into the fascinating history, quirky facts, and bold beginnings of the Constitution State.Thank You for listening and Stay curious,Kat & WilliamEmail  [email protected] you would like to support Info On The Go click the link belowhttps://www.buzzsprout.com/2434258/support Or for Patreonhttps://patreon.com/InfoOnTheGo?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLinkFollow us wherever you listen to podcasts and leave us a review.Follow us on Facebook at Info on the Go!https://www.facebook.com/share/g/159DdiptQh/?mibextid=wwXIfrhttps://infoonthego.buzzsprout.comWe use Upbeat Use the code below to listen or create.https://share.uppbeat.io/xobc81c0q2t0 Being Me Is the Best Thing to Be by Judy Erb tells the story of Honey, a curious little turtle who learns that being herself is the very best thing to be.
