History for Kids Comes ALIVE “Did you make that?” “No very talented friend of mine asked me to look this over,” “Wow!” His eyes were glued to my screen. Even though he needed to complete his technical writing assignment, I realized I had a captive audience. I kept clicking as I paid attention to his body language in my peripheral vision. He leaned closer.“I didn’t know that.” Closer“What’s the world fair?” CLOSER“I thought George Washington did that!” When we finished going through the presentation, he sat back. I nudged his shoulder and said, “My friend is so talented. I told her people NEED to experience her creativity in a different way and that she should make presentations to go with her book and materials. What do you think?” He got quiet. “That was……I mean I think the ONLY word to describe it is … BEAUTIFUL.” 👩Now I’m here to ask you… 💛 If you could captivate your kids attention as they explore history and biographies in a way that captures their attention and draws them into the the story. 💚 If you could simply open a browser and begin reading together and watch your kids lean CLOSER and closer to the screen. 💙 If you could watch history come ALIVE before your eyes… Would you JUMP at the chance? There is NOTHING else like these History Quicks out there.👉Seriously. I’ve been homeschooling for over 25 years and I’ve NEVER been so awestruck by a lesson. You and your kids NEED to experience this. If your kids aren’t CAPTIVATED, if you aren’t whispering WOW after 3 clicks of your mouse… I’ll eat my hat. Raise your hand.Seriously.Right now.
