From the BBC, Children of World War 2 is a great resource for kids who want to get a better understanding of what life was like for children during World War 2. History lessons will usually focus on the major events of the war: The Nazis invade Poland, the German Blitz, the bombing of Pearl Harbor, D-Day, Auschwitz, etc. The human side of the story is often missed and that's where Children of World War 2 comes in.The well-presented, easy to explore site has 10 sections to delve into that inform kids about the war and what it was all about. From evacuations, to what homes were like, food and shopping, daily life, and other interesting areas. Each section comes with some amazing photos with captions, some sections have writings (actual letters and speeches written by the various leaders), and also videos, and audio recordings of war-time events (Note: the audio and videos are not available in all countries).Also, within each section, there are activities, challenges, and quizzes that add a bit of fun to an often sad topic.
