Have you seen this? It's History Through the Ages. You get a CD for the computer with all these images on it, and you can grab the time line characters as you need them and print them out. You can print them out 'wall sized' or 'notebook sized'. We print out wall sized ones for the younger boys to color, and the notebook sized ones for Franklin to assemble his book. I went ahead and bought the book they sell because the pages are already done and we also bought the placement guide. We used to have the timeline on the wall, but that never really worked out for us well in regards to space, so this is a happy solution. This company also has a couple other unit studies, and we got the Bible one at the beginning of the year. It makes a really involved lap book. I haven't had time to use that yet, but eventually we will get to it. There are also suggestions on the CD on how to make file folder games, card games, pop up cards, and other lapbooks. There are also printouts you can make for handwriting practice where the child can either trace the copy, or you can dictate it to him and he can write it underneath the picture if you choose the option of printing without the text. Way cool. It's made by Home School in the Woods. Very handy product when studying history!
