I'm about halfway through the first volume of this with my kids and I completely agree with you on the cons of it. We skipped the mummy chapter completely and I started skipping a lot of the random intense content (like a dictator mounting heads on spears. Yikes.) I also usually skip the longer myths or have a conversation with my kids before I read it reminding them that none of it is real-just a story that culture made up. Overall though I'm liking it. We even got a little globe so we can look at the places we're reading about, and the book has sparked a lot of conversations. My kids were extremely interested in the silk worm myth and how silk is made.
Yes! Kind of have to pre-read some of the chapters or they catch you off guard. Have to edit on the fly.😅 But overall it's so good! We are doing volume 2 this year!
Oh heyyy! Just trying find my way over here on RUclips! It’s a whole different ball game compared to instagram but giving it a shot. Going to go binge watch your videos now!!! 🤗
Thank you so much! Your review was very helpful and I really enjoyed listening to it and seeing all of your fun art projects. It looks like you guys had a lot of fun! I have been trying to find a history course for my son next year. We kind of skipped history this year and he’s going into 3rd grade. You explained this really well. Thanks again.
