Famous Figures of the American Revolution - Expanded
Meet the people behind the Revolution—then put them into motion. Famous Figures of the American Revolution (Expanded) combines biography, history, and hands-on crafting as your child creates 15 articulated historical figures from the Revolutionary era.
Each historical figure is printed on sturdy, no-bleed cardstock in both full-color and black-and-white versions, ready to color. After cutting out the pieces, your child punches the marked holes and assembles each figure with mini brads to create movable arms and legs. Lettered assembly guides printed on the back of every piece make construction straightforward, and the finished figures stand approximately 10–13 inches tall.
The expanded edition broadens the cast beyond many familiar Revolutionary figures by adding figures such as Abigail Adams and King George III, giving children a fuller picture of the people who influenced the birth of the United States from both sides of the conflict.
Each figure includes a well-researched biography that introduces the person and explains why he or she mattered. A companion reading list encourages families to continue exploring the era, making the book an excellent companion to The Story of the World, Mystery of History, and other chronological history programs.
The learning doesn't end when the brads are in place. Children naturally use the finished figures for narration, storytelling, reenactments, timeline activities, and imaginative play, reinforcing historical understanding while strengthening fine motor skills through cutting, punching, and assembly.
This consumable book includes 15 historical figures in both color and black-and-white versions. A 1/8-inch hole punch and mini brads are required for assembly and are not included.
