Personal Review: Pioneer Days: Discover the Past with Fun
Projects, Games, Activities, and Recipes (American Kids in
History Series) by David C. King
PIONEER DAYS is a wonderful hands-on approach to teaching our
children the pioneer lifestyle. The book follows a ficticious family thru the
year 1843 and allows you to learn with your children what life on the
homestead was like, including crafts, recipes, games and more. I would
recommend it to homeschoolers especially as a good source for pioneer
study. It has a good bibliography in the back for additional readings on the
time period, including the LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE series. If
you are hooked with this style of learning, there are other titles in this
series (AMERICAN KIDS IN HISTORY) with which you may continue your
study of American History.
