From pyramids to magical funeral rites, the Ancient Egyptians present a truly larger-than-life picture. Ancient Egypt will capture children's imagination and generate a range of exciting work from model making to performing arts. The programs illustrate the colorful lives of the Egyptian people, with their pharaohs, ceremonies, and ways of life. Although history-led, the programs look at agriculture, education, the roles of men, women and children, hieroglyphs, art, architecture, beliefs - and opening opportunities to explore a range of related subjects.
