180 Days of Social Studies for Kindergarten
What does social studies look like for a five-year-old? 180 Days of Social Studies for Kindergarten answers that with one short page a day, covering four disciplines—history, civics, geography, and economics—through a weekly rotation that builds across the school year.
Each week focuses on a single discipline and builds on it over five short activities. Activities use real photographs, simple maps, and age-appropriate primary source images—the kinds of materials older students work with, scaled for a kindergartner. Each page includes a short question or two that asks your child to look closely and respond in his own words.
This is a no-prep workbook—open it, sit down together, and begin. The pages are black-and-white worksheets, originally designed for classroom use, which occasionally shows. Some pages picture a traditional classroom, but that's a cue to get creative: let your child draw your home as his classroom, or himself helping in that classroom. There's room here for imagination and information. An answer key in the back lets you check the work without studying the topic beforehand.
Across the year, your kindergartner gets steady, low-pressure exposure to what people did in the past, how communities work, where places are, and how people buy and sell—social studies at a five-year-old's pace.

mixed feelings
j2e2
I like the variety of facts and the introduction into the social studies and history. My daughter enjoyed learning those things. However, some of the days/lessons are very short and basic. I had to either look up Youtube videos or talk a little more about the subject to give more facts and context. She did like learning the fact of day, (and then discussing it more, which led to questions) but then some of the questions were too easy and sometimes the drawing ask was a little weird for her to draw. She would be engaged in the lesson but then rush to be finished with the 2nd half of the page. For example, one day was about Henry Ford. It said "This is Henry Ford, he made the car." Then the question below it was "What did Henry Ford make? a. boat or b. car", then it asked them to draw a car. After an eyeroll, she drew a truck with a face on it. :) I think it could be improved by less drawing asks and maybe a little more writeup. In summary, it was an ok book. We completed it and it gave us a guide on topics to discuss for the day.

Strongly geared towards public school
Catherine M.
My son and I did not like this book. It's strongly geared towards being used in public school, doesn't give enough information and it's boring. I will never use any '180 days of' workbooks after seeing this one.

Love It

Another great book that my daughter can’t put down. I have to circle a page number so she knows where she has to stop for the day!

Very simple and easy to follow
Brittany T.
My only complaint (and it can't even really be called a complaint) is that the lessons are one page a day but are very simple and both my kids were a little underwhelmed with the effort they required so they would routinely do the entire week in one sitting.

Feels a little dated
Amanda L.
There’s a few sections that feel useful but most of it felt like busy work. Not exactly what I have in mind for social studies. I get that it is supplemental but it still felt very dry.

Great resource for social studies topics
Mendy F.
We just started this workbook but have enjoyed it so far. It's easy and engaging for my kindergartener. I like that it covers civics, economics, geography and history. Little learners are exposed to the basics of the United States without going too deep yet. I love that it includes coin recognition because so many kindergarteners and first graders struggle with understanding money. I wasn't taught much of this when I was in kindergarten and it's totally doable at this age. I also really like the cover of the book with the american flag, the statue of liberty, and george washington because everytime we grab our book, it reminds us visually that those are common elements of social studies. We'll probably breeze through the workbook quickly, but that will give us time to either level up or focus on any areas that we may potentially struggle with.

Lots to learn about
Cassandra J.
My daughter has been using this book and is engaged for a bit. It’s not one that we are able to use every single day without her becoming bored. We split it up with some other activities that go along with what we’re learning to keep it fun and engaging. There’s a lot of great info in here. My only wish would be for colorful pictures instead of black and white.
