CALLIOPE is the perfect kids’ world history magazine. Specially written for kids ages 9 to 14, CALLIOPE goes beyond the "facts" to explore provocative issues. Kids will explore the impact of the Black Death; they'll read about life in early China and get acquainted with the Ancient Maya and the Yoruba Kingdom. They will also learn about the people who shaped world history—the pharaohs of Egypt, Martin Luther, Catherine the Great, and many more.
As CALLIOPE magazine shows, the past is a pretty amazing place. Kids will delight in journeys to Versailles at the time of Louis XIV, to Minoan Crete, through the South Pacific with Captain Cook, and to Britain during the fall of Rome. As CALLIOPE reader R. Jackson says, “CALLIOPE has inspired me in many ways…it is chock-full of fun and interesting facts.”
Each issue is beautifully illustrated with maps, beautiful photographs, art from major museums, and time lines. Interviews with historians, museum curators, and archaeologists help kids understand how history gets written. CALLIOPE also includes book recommendations, "Fun with Words," and hands-on projects such as making a stained glass window. It opens up a new world called history, where the past is as real as the present--and a lot more exciting! Your kids may never want to come back after exploring CALLIOPE, the best kids’ history magazine out there.
