Wonderful books for kids to do with their family and elders. Truly helps family bond in a fun, interactive way for the kids. I loved every bit of this! Great for most ages! Truly, something in here for each part of the family to enjoy building a bond with one another.

I won this from a Goodreads giveaway. All of the statements above are my true opinions after I've done several of these activities with family members, my son, nieces, and the elders in our family.

This fantastic book has tons of ideas to make family storytelling short, sweet, and fun for kids. We have made so many great memories with this book. It's helped our ancestors come alive for our kids. I love family history and I know it's important to tell our kids about it, but they are not good at just sitting and listening to long stories about "old time" people. Through this book, we have discovered how to effectively engage our kids in family history. I highly recommend this for parents and grandparents.
