[quote=Anonymous][quote]This is OP of the original post - from years ago! My formerly Titanic obsessed child has moved on to American Revolution and Civil War history. Or really any history, of any civilization. My goal for this summer is to somehow get him focused on ecology/environment/biology. He'd go nuts if he realized how interconnected living things are - bugs to plants to fish to bears. I want to turn him into a little environmentalist. Seems more forward thinking that history![/quote] Why not do both? History of the environmental movement in the U.S. Is pretty fascinating and has some drama, starting with that river that caught on fire that really got people thinking about what we were doing to the earth. Water wars too - and relevant to the CA drought. If you want critters, look at the outlawing of DDT and rebounding of raptors, or even history of beavers in the eastern U.S. All good stories and might pique his interest in our place in the world.[/quote]
