Why do we celebrate Women's History Month? In this video, you and your kids will learn about the significance of women's history. For much of world history, only males wrote and published stories about the past. This was because women were not treated equally to men for much of U.S. and world history. For example, in colonial America, women could not own property or vote in elections.

Except for a few places, females did not go to school. If they were at private academies, women were not taught the same subjects as men. While men learned to read, write Latin, world history, and math, women were taught what was known as "domestic arts," or how to manage a household. It was thought that a woman didn't need education because she was supposed to work at home. Can you imagine that in modern times?

The reason we dedicate an entire month to women’s history is that women have worked tirelessly, without recognition, and frequently at significant risk, to build the country we know today. For example, you probably know the names of Abigail Adams and Harriet Tubman. But have you ever heard of Eleanor Dare? How about Mary Chilton?

In 1980, President Jimmy Carter proclaimed the week of March 8 National Women's History Week. One year later, Congress joined with the president by passing a resolution declaring the week of March 8 as the official start of National Women's History Week. Seven years later, Congress passed a law authorizing the president to proclaim March as Women's History Month, and it has been celebrated ever since.

We hope you and your student(s) enjoyed learning about why we celebrate women throughout history! If you want even more information, head over to our website and download one of our many lesson plans, full of activities, worksheets, and more!

What is the difference between bacteria and viruses? In Bacteria and Viruses for Kids, you will learn all about these two microorganisms. The first thing you will learn is that not all bacteria are bad. In fact, the majority of bacteria on the planet and in your body are actually good. You can find bacteria in things like yogurt, soy sauce, and pickles!

So what are bacteria? They are single-celled organisms so small that you can't see them without a microscope. They don't have a nucleus like other single-celled Common shapes include rods, spirals, and spheres. All these organisms move in different ways too. Some move like swimmers using tail-like structures called flagella. Others stay still and don't move much at all. Then there are some that slither or slide their way around.

Most bacteria are not harmful. However, there are some that can make you sick. These are called pathogens. Common pathogens include food poisoning, leprosy, and typhoid fever. To fight these pathogens, you can use antibiotics or antiseptics. You can actually find antiseptics in soaps because it's how you keep your hands clean. Good bacteria, on the other hand, are good for many reasons. They help you digest food and keep your immune system strong. They also break down dead plant and animal material to help keep soil healthy. And, they produce about half of the oxygen in the atmosphere!

What about viruses? All viruses are bad. Scientists debate whether these organisms are living or dead because they don't have an organized cell structure and can't reproduce unless they attach themselves to a living cell. The word virus comes from the Latin word for "slimy liquid." These organisms attack healthy cells. As those cells reproduce, the virus reproduces too and spreads. Many kinds can pass from person to person through hand-shaking, food contact, and through water.

We hope you and your student(s) enjoyed learning about bacteria and viruses! If you want to learn even more, head over to our website and download one of our many free lesson plans about germs, full of activities, worksheets, and more!

Every February, Americans celebrate the lives and achievements of African Americans in American history. In 1915, an African American historian named Carter G. Woodson decided to give proper recognition to the accomplishments of Black Americans by starting the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History and declared the second week in February as "Negro History Week." President Gerald Ford decided that the week-long celebration of Black history should become a month-long period instead.

What do you know about the country of China? In All about China for Kids, you will learn a lot of cool facts about this incredible country. For instance, it is the most populated country in the whole world at 1.4 BILLION people! That is four times as many people as live in the USA. In addition, the official name of the country is the People's Republic of China. It is also the fourth largest country and borders a lot of other countries.

Because of China's big size, it boasts lots of different landscapes, like deserts, forests, mountains, and plateaus. In fact, a whole third of the country is covered in mountains. There are thousands of rivers, including the Yangtze and Yellow Rivers, throughout the country. And there is also a lot of wildlife all over the various regions, such as the Giant Panda, which is actually an endangered species. There are only around 2,000 pandas alive today!

China is home to one of the world's oldest civilizations. The history of China splits into periods of time called dynasties, the first one being the Xia Dynasty (pronounced like shaw) over 4000 years ago. And during the Qin Dynasty, the Great Wall of China was built, and the people developed advanced technology in mathematics and infrastructure. The last emperor was overthrown in 1912, and the country became a republic. But then in 1949, the current communist government overthrew the republic following a civil war.

There are so many cool attractions and landmarks to visit in China. Besides the Great Wall of China, there is the site of the terracotta army, a series of statues that represent Chinese warriors. They were buried under ground for more than 2,000 years! The Forbidden City is another great attraction, a place that was home to 24 of China's emperors. It was built around 1420 AD. Can you guess why it's called the forbidden city?

What do you know about Zeus? Have you ever heard of satyr or centaur? In Greek Mythology for Kids, you will learn about many creatures and important gods and goddesses that the ancient Greeks created. Mythology is basically a way of telling stories. Native Americans, Egyptians, Romans, and many other cultures and religions have created myths. However, Ancient Greek mythology includes some of the most well-known stories.

Ancient Greece is the foundation for most western culture today. It lasted from 800 BC to 146 BC, which is when the Roman conquered Greece. The stories the Greeks developed are very popular, and they helped them explain the world around them. Because they didn't have access to the same level of science and technology that we do today, they couldn't explain natural phenomena like the sun rising and falling every day or the occasional thunderstorm.

To explain thunderstorms, for instance, the Greeks believed there was a god called Zeus that could control thunder and throw lightning bolts down from the sky. All the gods and goddesses had wildly exaggerated personalities and one or more magical powers. They were not considered good or bad. They used their powers for good, trickery, and adventure. Some gods were Titans, some were Olympians, and some were relatives of both.

Apart from the gods and goddesses, the ancient Greeks also came up with other interesting creatures and monsters. Cyclops, for example, was a monster with one eye. A centaur was a creature that was half horse and half man. Similarly, a satyr was half man and half goat. One of the most famous monsters was the gorgon called Medusa. Instead of hair on her head, she had snakes. The myth states that if someone looked directly into her eyes, they would immediately turn into stone.

What would it be like to work for 16 hours a day, days a week? Nowadays, that is very uncommon in the United States. But during colonial times, that was the way life was for most people. In Colonial Times for Kids, you will learn about the daily life and habits of people who lived during this period of American history.

Let's start by talking about the children and what typical life was like for them. They had the chance to go to school, but they had better access to education if they lived in the city rather than on a farm. Many farm children learned to read and write from their father or church minister. Wealthier families might hire special tutors to teach their kids or send them to schools in England. Boys and girls did not have the same educational opportunities, though. In fact, many girls never learned to read or write.

Unfortunately, this was also a time during which people employed indentured servants, laborers brought over from Britain, or owned slaves. Indentured servants agreed to work for about seven years in return for their passage to America. But slavery grew in the colonies because the indentured servants were not easy to control and more difficult and costly to obtain. Some of the first African American indentured servants were forced into slavery rather than gaining their freedom after the seven-year work period.

Houses of this era were generally small, sometimes containing just a single room. The frames were made of wood, roofs of dried grasses, and floors of dirt. A fireplace inside was used for cooking and producing heat during the winter. Eventually homes on plantations grew larger, adorned with glass windows, wooden or carpeted floors, and quality furniture.

We hope you and your student(s) enjoyed learning about this period in American history! If you want even more information, head over to our website and download one of our many lesson plans, full of activities, worksheets, and more!

If you have ever asked "What is Kwanzaa?" or "How is Kwanzaa celebrated?" then this is the video for you! In this video about Kwanzaa for kids we explore the celebrations and traditions of Kwanzaa. Kwanzaa is a wonderful holiday celebration that starts on December 26th and runs to January 1st.

Throughout the video we take a look at and explain the 7 symbols of Kwanzaa, which are:
1. Kikombe Cha Umoja - The unity cup.
2. Kinara - The candle holder that holds 7 candles.
3. Mazao - Fruits, nuts, and vegetables.
4. Mishumaa Saba - the seven candles of kwanzaa.
5. Mkeka - a Place Mat
6. Vibunzi - an Ear of Corn
7. Zawadi - gifts given on January 1st.

Watch the video to learn the actions that are associated with each of the symbols.

We also teach about and explain the 7 principles of Kwanzaa which are:
1. Umoja (oo-MOH-ja) which means Unity Building.
2. Kujichagulia (koo-jee-chagoo-
LEE-yah) which means Self-determination.
3. Ujima (oo-JEE-mah) which means Collective work and
responsibility.
4. Ujamaa (oo-JAH-ma) which means Cooperative economics.
5. Nia (nee-AH) which means Sense of purpose.
6. Kuumba (koo-OOM-bah) which means Creativity.
7. Imani (ee-MAH-nee) which means Faith

Together, the tradition of the seven symbols and seven principles of Kwanzaa are values of African culture
which contribute to building and reinforcing community among African Americans.

From the first day of the celebration on December 26th when the black candle in the center of the Kinara is lit to the final day of the celebration on January 1st when the final candle is lit, millions of people every year
will be celebrating Kwanzaa, a special week honoring the values or African cultures and inspiring African

What would it be like to be a king or queen as a kid? That's what life was like for King Tutankhamun, or King Tut! He was a pharaoh of ancient Egypt in the 1300s BCE. Historians believe he became the pharaoh, or king, of Egypt around the age of nine. And his reign was pretty short, lasting only about 10 years.

The ancient Egyptians were very religious and believed their pharaohs were earthly gods who communicated with the other gods. Their beliefs focused a lot on the afterlife, and the people believed people passed through to the afterlife in the same form as when they were alive. They developed burial processes to preserve the body for its afterlife. This process is known as mummification.

King Tut was mummified and buried in a beautiful tomb like any other pharaoh. Tombs included other items the pharaoh might need in addition to just the body, such as food, jewelry, weapons, art, and even pets. The reason we know so much about King Tut specifically is that archaeologists who discovered his tomb in 1922 found the tomb completely untouched. There were over 5,000 artifacts! Because the items included in a tomb were personal items, the archaeologists studied the artifacts to recreate King Tut's life!

The boy king died pretty young at about 18 or 19 years old. There are several theories. Some historians believe he was murdered by his advisors who wanted to seize his power. Others think his own family killed him. Thanks to modern DNA testing and physical evidence, however, most scientists believe that the young pharaoh died because of poor health.

We hope you and your student(s) enjoyed learning about George Washington Carver! If you want even more information, head over to our website and download one of our many free lesson plans, full of activities, worksheets, and more!
