The Secret to Making History Fun for Kids (and Stress-Free for Parents)

Apr 13, 2025

Let’s be honest—most of us didn’t grow up loving history.

We were handed thick textbooks filled with dates and names… and expected to memorize them all. Not only was it boring, it didn’t feel connected to anything real. And now, as homeschool parents, many of us are trying to teach history in a way that’s more meaningful—but it’s not always easy.

At History Plus, we believe history should be one of the most exciting subjects your kids ever learn.

Here’s how we’re helping families rediscover history—not as a list of facts, but as an adventure full of stories, wonder, and real-life connections.


What’s Not Working 

We hear it all the time from homeschool parents:

  “My kids are bored by history.”

  “I don’t have time to prep activities and lessons.”

  “I’m not even sure how to teach it in a fun way!”

And it makes sense. So many resources out there still rely on outdated methods—textbooks with long chapters, worksheets with fill-in-the-blanks, and no real spark to draw kids in.

That’s not how kids learn best—and it’s not how they fall in love with the past.


The Power of Storytelling and Discovery 

When history is told as a story, everything changes.

At History Plus, we use short, engaging video lessons that draw kids into the why behind historical events—not just the what. Each lesson is designed to spark curiosity and lead to real conversations. Add in hands-on activities, challenges, and visual storytelling, and suddenly, kids are hooked.

They’re not just learning history.

They’re living it.


Why It’s Also Easier for Parents 

You shouldn’t have to spend hours preparing a lesson or wondering if your kids are “getting it.”

With our ready-to-go format, everything’s done for you:

  Watch a short, engaging video

  Do a fun follow-up activity or challenge

  Optional quiz to reinforce key ideas

  Discuss, explore, and move on with your day

It’s structured, flexible, and stress-free.


Making Learning a Joyful Adventure 

We’ve built History Plus to be more than a curriculum—it’s a tool to help families connect, explore, and grow together through learning.

Because when history is told well, it inspires creativity.

It sparks imagination.

And most of all—it sticks.

You don’t need to be a history expert to teach history well. You just need the right resources—and a sense of adventure.

 

Let’s make learning exciting again.
