[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids love Hamilton and it has actually been a great way for us to learn. Knowing that many aspects of the musical were inaccurate or sensationalized for the purpose of entertainment made me get a bunch of books that we could read together about Hamilton’s life, the founding fathers etc. I also got books about life for regular people/kids during the early days of America, which were super interesting for them. Now my kids (5 and 7) point out the inaccuracies when we listen to the songs or watch clips. The musical set in motion a great journey of learning for us. I realized I find the debates the founding fathers had super interesting, and I’ve been able to share what I’ve learned with my kids and explain how we are still debating things like state’s rights vs power of fed govt. We have also made family trips to Mt Vernon, Monticello etc. I can’t imagine that they would have had such a sustained interest in these topics and history without the songs, etc. [/quote]

Lol I am sure your kids are really absorbing all of this at ages 5 anf 7. [/quote]
