Make 21 Jointed Paper Dolls from Ancient History The 21 famous people in this book come in two versions: one colored and one to color. The card stock pages make sturdy paper dolls in ancient costume. You may laminate the pages before cutting them out to strengthen them. We label the back of each paper doll with a letter key for easy identification and assembly. Cut out the pieces. Use a 1/8? round hole punch to form a hole at each joint. Finally, place a mini brad through the joint hole and you have a moving historical character! Includes Facts and a Reading List There is a short description about each person at the beginning of the book, along with a list of books to read aloud. The list of books may be a teaching resource for books to read while your child is making the jointed paper dolls. Use the historical paper dolls with biographies, with lap books, as a unit study, on a timeline, or with any ancient history curriculum.

Hours of fun and educational play for hands-on learners. Build the Great Pyramid with Khufu. Rule ancient Egypt with Hatshepsut. Climb Mount Sinai with Moses. Fight the Spartans with a Greek hoplite. Ride with Hannibal and his war elephants as he tries to defeat the Romans. Learn while playing with paper dolls from Famous Figures of Ancient Times!
