Roman History For Kids

Information and websites on Ancient Rome, especially designed for children.
Ancient Rome Project
The information is suitable for older children and the graphics will please younger ones on this site covering all the popular topics from Roman history. Unfortunately some of their links to other sites, including almost all the Gods and Goddesses page, don't work.
Children's Chapters
The kid’s section of the impressive roman-empire.net is equally good, with specially written chapters on Rome’s buildings, achievements, people, evils and gods. The tone is still serious but enthusiastic and friendly, while kids bored of text can cut-out and play with a model legionary helmet!
Romans By The BBC
Written for Britain’s Keystage 2 children (7-11 years of age), this colourful site encapsulates most aspects of British Roman life and culture, breaking it down into easily digestible sections. At the end of each section children can test themselves with quizzes or follow the suggestions for further activities.
