This is our new History curriculum. This little book is amazing. It takes historical facts and makes it into a story about a family with two young kids. The parents use everyday items and things like serving dinner as examples of historic things. For example, the first chapter is about Marco Polo and the Silk Road. The parents in the family explained trade when dinner was served, and each had a component to the meal. They all took the road to the mercantile who then split it all equally and dinner was served :)
It was very easy for R to understand and I felt it was a great lesson.
We read about the trade routes of early America, Marco Polo and the Silk road.
