Ancient Egypt


We're done with Ancient Mesopotamia and are immersed in Ancient Egypt. We'll spend 1 month here while we simultaneously learn about Abraham - Moses. The kids are LOVING this unit of RC History. They are reading books and re-reading them. Since everyone has colds today, I think we'll spend the rest of the afternoon in Ancient Egypt. We were supposed to go to our co-op Academics Club today and have a play date with our cousins, but 5 sore throats is enough to keep us home.

coloring pages:
Horus god Anubis with a mummy Nut, the sky goddess Hershef

I love this guy's site : Mr. Donn Ancient Egypt

Costume
There is a cool example of using 1 piece of cloth to make a woman's draped dress in the left column of Pharaonic Egypt - Garments - truth be told, the entire site seems EXCELLENT for information.
