This historical destination in the "Spend the Day" series transports children to Rome at the peak of its empire. It is summer of the year A.D. 125. Children join a typical family in the celebration of the Roman Games, a two week civic festival in tribute to the God Jupiter. And as they are in Rome, they do as the Romans do--everything from draping a toga and making a gladiator's shield to learning Roman games and making a Roman feast. It's a unique, hands-on glimpse into yet another remarkable civilization. Ages 8 to 12.
