Description
Think history is dry and boring? Think again! This quality hardcover book is one you won’t want to put down! It includes a 15-foot fold-out timeline with vivid pictures and illustrations allowing you to see the BIG picture, a visual representation of 6,000 years of history. Flip through the sturdy cardstock panels, reading it like a book, or allow history to unfold (literally!) as you stretch it out across your room! The timeline is color-coded, multi-stream, and easy-to-understand. I LOVE seeing how secular and Biblical history fit together! You can use this as a reference alongside ANY history curriculum, but don’t be surprised if the kids want to study it, just for FUN!

Why did you choose this?
I love the idea of having a visual timeline that blends both world history and the Bible.
Recommended by a seasoned homeschool mom.
I think that this would be a terrific hands on activity for him to be able to learn how to note down and appreciate history and the events of his life as well, as he learns about building a timeline…
It correlated with using the Bible as our core curriculum.
