Famous Figures of the Middle Ages & Renaissance

Set sail with Leif Eriksson, ride into battle with Joan of Arc or Genghis Khan, or befriend birds, beasts, and people with the peaceful Francis. This set of 21 movable paper figures to cut, color, and assemble allows children to act out the history they’ve been reading, or even create new stories using famous people from both medieval and Renaissance times. A brief biographical note on each figure is also included, along with a list of resources.

This set is an excellent accompaniment to The Story of the World, Volume 2. And, in addition, your house is too quiet. It needs a reason for someone to yell, “Mommmmmmm! Tell Francis of Assisi to stop beating up Genghis Khan!” Anticipating your needs, we happen to offer such a reason.

Add two 100-count boxes of mini-brads and a 1/8-inch hole punch for everything you need to create these figures.
