Looking Backward, Moving Forward: History in the Lives of Children. For Parents Particularly.
Klein, Helen Altman
Childhood Education, v76 n1 p42-43 Fall 1999
Children learn the joy of history and their own place in the world through encounters with older relatives such as grandparents. From familial reminiscences children attain: early history lessons; respect for those who have come before; and links to family values and traditions. To facilitate appreciation of history, celebrate, document, and visit the past; and share stories and memorabilia. (LBT)
