Ancient Egypt is a subject of never-ending fascination for primary grade
kids. Here they learn all about hieroglyphs, the beautiful pictogram
writing that appears on mummy cases, papyrus scrolls, tomb walls, etc.
What do the different symbols mean? How did we learn to decipher
hieroglyphs? What was school and learning to read and write like for
children of ancient Egypt? The information is accessible and
fascinating, plus kids have the fun of creating hieroglyph messages and
works of art using the accompanying stencil.
