American Revolution Reenactment

During breakfast this morning, my first grader son was asking about the American Revolution. So we did a re-enactment using markers, chocolate Easter eggs, and colored pencils. We covered many things, such as, how the colonists used guerrilla tactics versus how the English troops liked to line up across from their enemy. We also covered the midnight ride of Paul Revere, and the Boston Tea Party. In the end, I'm happy to say that the chocolate Easter eggs, aka the colonists, came out victorious. But we did have to give credit to the colored pencils, aka the French Navy, for preventing reinforcements from changing the outcome.
