World War II History Fun Day - Homeschooling Activity

This is a joint collaboration effort of some 40 mummies, and the theme this time round is World War II. Our previous themes were Singapore, China, and Egypt etc.

And here’s how it goes, each mummy setup a station, which includes hands-on activities for the kids, and in 2 hours, the kid gets to choose which station to visit.

Each station activity probably will take 10 minutes, and of coz, the aim is to make it a memorable activity, rather than to rush to complete all the stations.

Mummy Eliz worked on Evacuation and a mock-up of an Anderson Bomb Shelter used during WWII with Auntie Anju, and the kids got to make a diary of their own, after listening to Anne Frank, and also weight out some rice and chocolate.
