Kings and queens may seem fancy and cool to you, but they sure weren’t to Americans living in colonial times! In The History of American Government, young viewers will learn the history behind America’s progression from being ruled by the English monarchy to becoming the democracy it is today. Kids will explore the government of colonial America, George Washington and the American Revolution, and learn why the Founding Fathers thought it important to divide and share powers as they established the foundation for today’s American government. Part of the multivolume American Government for Children Video Series. A Teacher's Guide is included and available online.

 

"Virtually every school and public library will want to purchase this series…Technical quality is excellent, young actors are ethnically diverse, and the narration is very clear and understandable. Even the youngest students will be able to comprehend the basics of government after watching these videos."- School Library Journal (May 2002)

"Drawings, paintings, brief reenactments, and frequent on-screen captions enhance the well-organized presentation...solid information and brisk-pacing..."- Booklist (April 15, 2002)
