Here inside the eCool Compound (also known as sick bay at present), we’ve grateful to the 24 Hour Museum for putting us onto the National Museum of Scotland’s online Roman resources for kids. We’ve been having lots of fun with the cute What Did Romans Wear Activity?, by which we’ve become significantly better educated about the clothing and armor of Roman soldiers. Kids who love Rome will enjoy dragging clothing and armor onto the body of a burly Roman soldier, figuring out the order in which they should be put on, and deciding which items were worn by the infantry and which by the cavalry.
Once your soldiers are dressed and ready to go, you might want to try your hand at building a Roman For, also on the website of the National Museum of Scotland. Though their Where does the Roman Army Live? game lacks the charming burly soldiers of found in What Did Romans Wear?, kids probably won’t care, especially if they’re into fort-building and the careful planning of sieges.
To find more Rome-based online activities for kids, click on over to the 24 Hour Museum. They’ve kindly done a round-up of some of the best ones.
