in... My favorite thing this year is again going through Story of the World and
a Child's History of the World and doing History Pockets with my younger kids.
By far, my favorite time of homeschooling is when we go through Story of the World and History Pockets. How I regret not buying the student workbook pages to go with Story of the World the last time I did this history with my older kids. I love the corresponding literature suggestions. I love learning Geography through history. I love the reiteration through narration and dictation. I love it all.
History Pockets was such an added treasure. All the projects your kids can do; Mesopotamian puppets, making a popup ziggurat- I wish I had learned this way as a kid.
