Roman Adventure Activity Book

Reviews / Votes

Interactive and full of easy-to-digest information, this activity book brings Ancient Rome back to life.



Who isn't fascinated by Ancient Rome? From their gods and heroes to the clothes they wore, the foods they ate, and the language they spoke, the ancient Romans were very different from us-and yet, their culture laid the foundation for much of the modern world! Did you know Romans counted using letters instead of numbers? There was no police force in ancient Rome, so people cursed those who committed a crime instead.



For entertainment, the Romans liked to watch people fight to death. They loved courageous military leaders, like Julias Caesar, who used to send his generals messages written in secret code, and they also loved parades and chariot races. Yet, we inherited everything from straight roads to political elections from the Romans.



Perfect for elementary and middle-school students and homeschooling families, this information-packed and highly interactive activity book is designed to spark fascination with Ancient Rome. Every page blends facts with activities curated to build a range of cognitive skills, from critical thinking and conversation skills to game-based math and literacy learning. Along with book-based activities like puzzles, mazes, and spot-the-difference, the book also encourages readers to step away from the book to get involved in real-life activities such as cooking and craft projects. Jen Alliston's cute and quirky cartoon illustrations fill the volume with color and surprising historical detail.



Whether learning about ancient history or simply filling time on a rainy afternoon, this activity book is a winner for Ancient Rome aficionados. * The Children's Book Review *
