We're going to be doing our first timeline. Seriously, first one. I am not into the wall timelines...too long, too much work..etc etc. This year I found Mystery of History, which we'll use along with Story of the World, in chronological order, all hands on and fun!
The author of Mystery of History includes in the book exact directions how to make this simple Timeline that FOLDS UP! Space saving, portable, but nice when it's opened!
I also joined a YahooGroup dedicated to Mystery of History Vol I and on there they have loads of pictures AND lots of resources you can download!
This is made of a Super Sewing Board. I found mine at Joann's. It was $16.99 cause it's the SUPER sewing board. I love it.
I covered the white part with white contact paper. And once folded, I added the title with my beloved Cricut.
Here's the board open. On top is Anno Domini, and Creation is on the bottom. It works its way up with Christ's birth at the top.
Here it is with the top and bottom flaps folded up
Then the next portion folded up
Then the final portion folded up
It's beautiful. I love it! I am so pleased with the way it came out, and how simple it is, and how it folds! Love love love it!
