On meeting a childhood hero (and all that happened next!)
Kiddos are 8 and 4. We had fun studying the Aztecs and Hopewell this year.
My girls are 6, 4 and 1. We haven’t gotten very far in history but my oldest has enjoyed the ancient times we have studied so far!
My kids are 7 & 14 and this year enjoyed early modern history
My children are 10 and 8. Right now they are most interested in modern history.
Okay, this is going to sound crazy, but my 7 year old son is fascinated with…the future. He loves Doctor Who, so he loves learning about how the future may possibly be like.
I have 5 kids… They all love the westward expansion time period and do so I!!!
My children are 7, 5 and 3. The younger ones haven’t expressed a preference yet, but my 7yo son is fascinated by all things medieval and the Vikings.
My oldest is 6, then 4, 3, 18 months and 6 weeks. My oldest loves the American Revolution – probably because his mom loves it. My 4 and 3 year olds think that the Renaissance is the best – probably because of the lingering knights and castles. They love to play king and queen games.
I have 11 children: 18g,17g,17g,17b,15g,13b,11g,9b,9b,5b,4g.
They all have various favorite times… But most common are World War 2 or Pioneer days.
12 Year old loves ancient history and early US history. Great giveaway! Thanks.
My kids are almost 9, 6 1/2, 4 and 19 months. They love any story from the Scriptures, and really, anything we end up reading about,especially about Egypt, Rome and Mexico.
My boys are almost 13 and 15.
They love to learn about and discuss many times periods throughout history. Their favorite is probably WW II
