The American Revolution for Kids, A History with 21 Activities

The American Revolution for Kids, A History with 21 Activities by Janis Herbert

Heroes, traitors, and great thinkers come to life in this activity book, and the concepts of freedom and democracy are celebrated in true accounts of the distinguished officers, wise delegates, rugged riflemen, and hardworking farm wives and children who created the new nation. The American Revolution for Kids tells the story of the Revolution, from the hated Stamp Act and the Boston Tea Party to the British surrender at Yorktown and the creation of the United States Constitution.

All American students are required to study the Revolution and the Constitution, and these 21 activities make it fun and memorable. Kids make a fringed hunting shirt like the one worn by frontiersmen. Reenact the Battle of Cowpens. Learn how to make their voices heard in "I Protest" and how Congress works in "There Ought to Be a Law." This book is a valuable resource for both students and teachers.
