What was daily life like for children growing up during World War 2? This story-led box explores the home front through the eyes of young people living through it, from blackout curtains and evacuation to codebreaking and making do with very little.
Alongside the story, children get puzzles to solve, activities to try and pages to cut out and make. Each one is chosen to help them understand the period in a thoughtful way that suits their age.
It arrives ready to open, with no screens needed, which makes it a thoughtful gift for a birthday, Christmas or a child who has started asking big questions about the past.
