I shared last night on Facebook that the 4-disc set of Liberty’s Kids is on sale for $5 with free shipping! This is even lower than what I purchased it for almost a year ago. If you haven’t gotten your copy yet, this is a must-have for your collection. Liberty’s Kids is fun AND educational, and my girls absolutely love it. I think they do a good job of highlighting high-points in the American Revolution.
History comes alive in this excellent Emmy and Humanitas Award-nominated 40-episode, animated series about the experiences of two young teens during the American Revolution. Far more than a simple chronicle of the battles and major events of the American Revolution, Liberty’s Kids tells the story of the cultural, scientific, political, and social forces that helped shape America’s fight for independence from the perspective of two young teens from very different backgrounds. Sarah is a young English woman living in America who maintains a strong sense of loyalty to England and James is a printer’s apprentice living the American dream, but feeling the constraints of British oppression. Working together on Benjamin Franklin’s newspaper the “Pennsylvania Gazette,” Sarah and James often find their interpretations of current events differ markedly and the pair constantly grapples with tough issues like slavery, self-governance, fair representation, and the role of women in battle and politics.
Like I said, shipping is free for Prime members OR shipping is free with Super Saver Shipping, which is Amazon talk for free shipping with orders totaling $35 or more.
Last year, I also bought Schoolhouse Rock. {Conjunction junction, what’s your function?}. It is a fun one to have as well, and is currently at $12.96 + free shipping.
Amazon’s prices can change at anytime. Be sure to verify that the price is still $5 or one at which you don’t mind paying before clicking the “purchase” button. Also, to get the free Super Saver Shipping, you have to have a total qualifying purchase of $35 or more. Prime members do not have to buy anything extra to receive the free Prime shipping.
