Just so you know...I do do other things besides knit and cook! I just find that I don't usually blog about those other things on a regular basis. Since September, my two younger ones and I have been studying Ancient history. We've covered Mesopotamia, Ancient Egypt and are now just about finished with Ancient Greece. Next we'll be visiting Ancient Roman times. When my two older ones were covering that portion of history, we did all kinds of crafts and fun hands-on items as well as notebooking pages. My two younger ones have been rather neglected in the crafts and hands-on departments when it comes to studying history. Oh well. I'm sure they'll survive!
Anyway, for many years, I've appreciated Jimmie's Collage and Notebooking blogs. She's always doing some really neat and creative things with her daughter for homeschooling. And she's been generous in sharing those things and ideas she's created. In fact, I've used some of her ideas and many of her free printables for our own homeschooling projects. Of course besides Jimmie, there are many other blogs and homeschool sites that offer wonderful free printables and lapbook ideas (some of which I've used over the years). Actually there are too many helpful sites to list!
Anyway, getting back to our Ancient study...I made up a few notebooking pages and worksheets for my children to use while covering certain topics with Ancient Greece. Things that I couldn't readily find already-made. If they can help you in your study, feel free to download them below (for personal use only, please).
I'm continually in awe of all you young moms who truly are doing it all!!! And doing it magnificently. Hugs!

My younger guy's have missed out on a lot of the crafty stuff too, but I don't think it will require therapy! :)

My oldest had a great passions for the ancients when he was barely 4. He could tell you all about most everything. We began listening to Story of the World at that time. His interest in history has continued to his current ripe old age of 8.5!!

The printables are so nice! Thanks for sharing and for all the kind things you said about me. I'll be linking to you in an upcoming Round up!
We are studying ancient Rome right now. It's going really well, but it's a complicated time of history. Such family and political intrigue!

Rylen did Greek history last year - these would have been a great enhancement for her. She is doing Roman history now, so I will check out Jimmie's blog since she said they are also doing Rome now.

Thank you for these printables. We are just starting our Greece Study using Beautiful Feet and this will go along just wonderfully.
