Family history for the kitchen table

Help your children meet the people who built your family.

Family History Adventures is a warm, hands-on genealogy workbook for homeschool families with learners ages 8–14, roughly Grades 3–8. No special training, no elaborate preparation—just good questions, real family stories, and a little time together.

Written by a grandmother who believes every family has stories worth keeping.

Start with one small story

See the first pages before you begin.

Unit 1 begins with the gentlest possible question: what do we already know about our family? Your child can look through the real pages, try the first activity, and see whether this kind of family detective work feels right for you.
