Where do you even START with the Constitution for a 5, 6, or 7-year-old?

Start with the BIG ideas they can see, touch, hear, and do.

Let them meet the Framers.
Let them dress the Framers in Articles.
Let them build “We the People.”
Let them add the Amendments.
Let them crack the codes.
Let them listen to the story.

They won’t understand everything yet—and they don’t need to.

They’re starting with what can make sense to them now, giving them something to build on as they grow.

That’s the kind of history we believe in at Little Lion History.

Not mastery at 5.
A beginning they can keep building on. 🤍

Want to make podcast time a little more interactive? 🤍

The September Cub Club Listener Companions are ready to print—and they’re completely FREE.

Each one goes along with an episode of the Cub Club History Podcast, with picture clues to help little listeners solve the opening mystery and simple activities that bring pieces of the story off the podcast and onto the page.

You don’t need them to enjoy the episodes—but for the little listeners who love to see, point, match, and follow along while they listen, they’re there.

And because the last thing you need is another thing to remember every Tuesday and Thursday, I put the entire month of September together for you.

Print them all at once, tuck them away, and you’re ready for new episodes every Tuesday + Thursday!

Comment COMPANION and I’ll send you the link to print the whole set. 🤍

You want to fit more history into your homeschool but you don’t necessarily need another thing added to your lesson plans.

Sometimes history can happen in the car.
Or over breakfast.
Or while they’re coloring at the table.

The Cub Club History Podcast was made for those little pockets of time—bringing big history to kids ages 4–8 through stories, clues, imagination, and chances to join in along the way.

And this September, what they’re hearing can connect with what they’re learning, too.

The first episode drops September 1, the same day as Journey Through the Industrial Revolution, so little learners can listen to the history and then keep exploring it through hands-on learning.

New podcast episodes every Tuesday + Thursday. 🎧

I’ll be the first to admit, I don’t remember most of the history I learned in school.

I learned it. I passed the tests. But so much of it never had anything to connect to, so eventually it disappeared.

That’s something I think about a lot as I build Little Lion History.

I don’t expect a 5-year-old to walk away knowing everything there is to know about the American Revolution, the Industrial Revolution, or any other piece of history we explore.

I want to give them something to connect to.

A person they recognize. An invention they’ve encountered. A place they’ve heard of. An idea they’ve met before.

Then when history shows up again in a book, a conversation, another lesson, or years down the road, they aren’t starting from zero.

There’s already something there.

And we can keep building from it.

That’s what I mean when I say we’re changing the way kids meet history.

One small piece at a time.

Want to see what that can actually look like with your kids? Comment START and I’ll send you the Cub Club Freebie Library. Pick an entry point and start there.
