HISTORY & GEOGRAPHY

Journey from Creation to the fall of the Roman Empire...

You and your children will:

  • Discover if Alexander the Great and his weary troops can defeat the mighty war elephants of India in his quest to conquer the entire known world.
  • Climb the Himalayan Mountains and visit the Rajbanshi people who do not yet have the Bible in their own language.
  • Walk beside pioneer missionary explorer David Livingstone as he survives an attack by a 400-pound lion and goes on to blaze the trail for the Gospel of Christ in Africa.
  • Go whale hunting with Bjorn (the Viking) as he struggles to survive the harsh climate of Iceland to feed his family.
  • Travel through the harsh Egyptian desert with Howard Carter and experience the exciting discovery of King Tut's long-lost tomb.

It offers you history the way you wish you'd been taught—guaranteed.

READ-ALOUDS

Snuggle up on the couch...

...and settle in for daily adventure, suspense and laughter with our famous Core 1 Read-Alouds.

  • Solve a mystery with seven ancient Roman boys in Detectives in Togas.
