Civil War Stories

[Craig Hipkins]

Last year my 8 year old son would get up in front of his class and give history lessons to his fellow classmates. Everything from the Lincoln Assassination to the Battle of Waterloo. I believe that if kids are taught this stuff at an early age they will have a better appreciation of it when they become adults. When I was a kid we all collected postage stamps. This is a good way to learn history. Too bad not many kids collect them anymore. History also broadens the imagination. Just a few humble and unscientific thoughts on my part.
