The kids learned about the Great Pyramid of Giza. It's the tallest and oldest of three enormous pyramids built near Giza, a town near Cairo. The size is simply amazing! It's as far as 10 football fields and as tall as a 40 story building.
Check out this video!
Inside the Great Pyramid
We made a pyramid out of graham cracker crumbs. I thought this way we could get a little snack as well.
We also learned about hieroglyphics. I had the kids make a sentence out of hieroglyphics and then they had to pass it to their sibling to try and figure it out.
Once we did those two activities, we got to mummify each other! The kids really enjoyed this and I really wanted to keep them this way! Just kidding.
