Find out what life was like for Americans during the Civil War in 1862! This book follows a year in the lives of two fictional families—a white family from the South and a black family from the North—and presents dozens of fun projects and activities from that time period.

Retail Price: 12.95

Travel back to 1862 and spend a year with the Wheelers, an African-American family in New York City, and the Parkhursts, a Caucasian family in Charleston, South Carolina. Eleven-year-old Emily Parkhurst and twelve-year-old Timothy Wheeler share the fun, adventure, and hard work of their daily lives in this book. They'll show your child how to play games and make toys and crafts from 1862. Your child will make apple pandowdy and gingerbread; send top-secret messages in Morse code; gather materials for crafting evergreen wreaths and pinecone turkeys; and sculpt a miniature sheep out of homemade clay dough.

Civil War Days contains many more fun, hands-on projects and activities. This educational and entertaining book is also filled with interesting historical information and facts about growing up in days gone by. Your child will discover how different (and how similar) life was for American kids in history. Don't delay. Order Civil War Days from Alpha Omega Publications today!

"I have just completed my order with AOP for our homeschooling materials for the next school year. For the first time in the two years I have been homeschooling our three boys, I feel a complete peace and excitement for the school year to come. As many homeschoolers do, I have researched and tried many of the homeschooling products available. Indeed, the choices are endless. However, I have finally found a curriculum with AOP that fits our family's values, goals, learning styles, and lifestyle. Thank you for offering quality products at such an affordable price. We look forward to many years of learning with AOP and the blessings that are sure to come. God bless you all at AOP!"

"I have been homeschooling for seven years and have used curriculum from AOP every year. I started with it when my two older children were in preschool and kindergarten. I am now homeschooling four children. It is so nice to know that AOP is there with so many great products to make my life easier as a homeschooler! Thanks AOP!"
