This year the kids literally begged to study American History.  Obviously we complied with their request and have been having a blast learning everything we can.  I've found it fascinating to watch how all four kiddos have gravitated towards learning about Native American Indians.  They just can't get enough!

As part of our studies we presented these four Native American Indian Activities with Free Printables.  I love how each one teaches a different aspect of Indian life.

Native American Indian Activities with Free Printables

Here's what's on our shelves!

Native American Indian Home 3-Part Cards

Not all Native American Indians lived in Tepees.  This is a great activity that introduces just how many different types of homes there were.

Native American Indian Geographic Areas Activity

It's so easy to assume that all Native American Indians lived the same type of life, but that's far from true.  In this activity the kiddos learned about all of the different geographic areas where various tribes lived.

The kiddos placed the corresponding colored beads on the map as they matched up pictures and information cards about each geographic area.

It has been so wonderful to watch the kiddos learn about the Native American Indians and develop such a love and appreciation for them.  I love that our American History studies have started here!
