Info
We have a wide
range of British history activity sheets for kids available. They
are very competitively priced and contain many more illustrations than
other sheets on the market: all exclusive to Nash Ford Publishing. You
can purchase them very cheaply in sets organised by subject. All sheets
are shown and described above. Some are quick, some are longer and take
more thought or involve making things. Most are single pages, but some
are more. Some can be used straight off. Others are designed to be used
after a little learning, which our Early
British Kingdoms website can help with of course. All of them double
as colouring sheets and will keep your pupils or children amused for
hours. For activity sheets from other periods of British history, click
