Kezia Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 We just finished the entire SOTW audio set. My kid loved listening to the story in the car. He has a huge interest in history in general and would love to start another audio based series. We both enjoyed the easy narrative format of SOTW. Any suggestions for another fun round of world history? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosie_0801 Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 I don't know about world history, but Librivox has a few of Ancient Rome and whatnot for kids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LauraBeth475 Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 We really like Philip Campbell’s Story of Civilization series. Catholic content though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hadn't heard of different versions but I just checked audible where I bought it, someone left a disappointed review saying it's been edited.

goldenecho Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 How old are your kids now? I know of some good history podcasts, but they are aimed a little older than Story of the World. The History of Rome podcast by Mike Duncan is amazing, and is something that would get you through quite a few car trips. I also love Stuff You Missed in History. But in both cases it might not work for younger kids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At 10 History of Rome would probably be a little long winded for him, unless he's just really interested in Rome. Stuff You Missed in History Class he might like though and I think the content would generally be fine (sex is mentioned but I don't remember anything explicit...same for violence. But then I haven't listened to every single episode). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
