The
Vikings : 350 Years of Adventure to Unlock and Discover (Treasure Chests)
- I have not ordered this one yet but it looks like a wonderful "treasure
chest" of activities for children. The customer reviews at Amazon.com
give the treasure chest 5 starts out of 5. One Customer review reads:
This sturdy box comes with its own key and contains a delightful variety
of Viking information and paraphernalia. There is a light cardboard Viking
ship to assemble, a Hnefatafl game (a good board game for 2) with plastic
pieces based on the Lewis chessmen, a sundial that needs to be calibrated
for your location (directions included), cardboard runes and information
about their use in divination, 2 posters (1 each on history and on mythology),
and a small book that gives a good introduction to the Viking world. It's
more than one rainy day's fun and should appeal to a wide age range. The
board game is an excellent strategy game for all ages through adult and
will be played long after the ship has disintegrated and the posters have
lost their novelty. Click on the graphic to see a larger picture.
Archaeology
and Ancient History - The Vikings: Lots of interesting information
including a Flash enhanced game from the BBC. Very interesting and entertaining
site. Lots of things here that kids will find interesting and fun.
