This 250th Edition of Famous Figures of the American Revolution includes even more figures (5 more!) from the American Revolution! Kids will love getting to cut, color, and assemble these characters (British loyalists and patriots!) to act out history and bring the past to life. Each of the 15 figures comes in a pair, one brightly colored in historically accurate dress, and the other – ready for your own touch of color with colored pencils, markers, or paint. Although made from sturdy cardstock, these paper dolls have moveable parts, connected at the joints by mini metal brads – making them extra fun to interact with! You can even use string, pipe cleaners, or popsicle sticks to make your own puppets. The back of each paper doll is labeled for quick recognition.
Front pages include colorful, detailed biography cards
(postcard-size) of each famous figure that can be cut out and displayed if you
like. Also includes a long list of suggested books to use for read-alouds and
independent reading. A great way to spark an interest in history and encourage
creative play.
Includes these Famous Figures: Benjamin Franklin, Betsy Ross, Daniel Boone, George Washington, John Adams, Molly Pitcher, Patrick Henry, Paul Revere, Soldier of the continental Army, Patrick Henry, Phillis Wheatley, British Soldier, Two Kettles Together (Tyonajanegen), Joseph Brant, and Thomas Jefferson. ~Nancie
