World History Activities World history can be an exciting subject to teach but making it accessible and comprehensible to elementary school kids can be an uphill task. I hated history as a child, mostly because the textbooks were horribly boring, the teachers were dry as a crust of day-old bread, and those long lists of dates were entirely frustrating.

Given the opportunity to teach homeschool history my way, everything changed. I LOVE history now and so do my children! From the beginning, I have used great curriculum , living books , field trips , hands-on learning , and project-based learning to make history come alive. Fantastically fun games have consistently been a surefire, hands-on way to gain history fans and a lot of laughs , too.

I thought I would share some of my favorite games to teach history with you today. I also asked my friend Jen Vail homeschool mom to gifted kids to add her ideas to the list, as well.
