We had so much fun "traveling" to Ancient Egypt! This was one of our favorite units so far. The kids made a replica of the Nile River with Tony, Scout let us mummify her (River was too scared : ) and we ended our unit with a family trip to the
Denver Museum of Nature and Science to see the Egyptian Mummy exhibit. We are so fortunate to have such an incredible museum so close.

The Gift of the Nile by Jan M. Mike was one of our favorite books for this unit. This story of friendship is simple and sweet.
The Seeker of Knowledge by James Rumford was an amazing book and one I would highly recommend for any home library. The story is rich in history and very inspiring at the same time. It really makes you feel like you could do something extraordinary with your life.

We been to this exhibit a handful of times but now we all felt like experts on the legend of Osiris and his brother Set. |
