YOU have a lot to do with history.

Where you live, what you eat, how you speak, what you play with, and even how you greet other people all have to do with history. Your life is a collection of things learned from the past.

Today, people are creating new technologies and making discoveries that will change life for your children.

To make good choices, you need to learn about your past and the history of our world. Our world and its people have changed a lot over time.

In this lesson, go back to the time of the early humans and learn about life — especially what it was like for children. Then, continue to go through time and learn about the differences and similarities concerning children living in different periods until you return to the current period.

Even though you may think you have nothing to do with history, everything you are and do has been influenced by our history!
