I think it's a real fun way for children to learn a little history
ReplyDeleteI actually watched this show growing up and although it's not super accurate, I believe that it gives a new perspective on history. I love how educational and fun it is. Kids don't even remember that it's "real" sometimes because they are enjoying it so much.
