History for Kids - Vikings

Longships, Norse gods and brave sea journeys

For a lot of kids, the Vikings are the first chapter of history that really grabs them. The ships are cool. The helmets weren’t actually horned (tell your child — it’s a great fact). Odin, Thor, Loki and Freya form one of the most fun pantheons on the planet. And Leif Erikson reached North America 500 years before Columbus. History for Kids - Vikings pulls all of that — and the everyday lives behind it — into nine rich sections.

Your child will step onto a longship and feel how these vessels were actually engineered. They’ll meet warriors — and, just as importantly, the farmers, traders, weavers, storytellers and explorers who made up most Viking life. They’ll read runes (well — look at them and learn the basics), sit by a long-house fire for a grand feast, and sail with the explorers who found Iceland, Greenland and, yes, Vinland. And they’ll meet Ragnar Lothbrok and Leif Erikson at the age when a hero still really matters.

Gentle, accurate, never gory

Every section has beautiful illustrations and audio narration. Little kids listen; older kids read. Every guide ends with a “Did you know?” curiosity card. The treatment of raids and combat is age-appropriate — more “brave adventure” than “grisly battle”.
