Columbus Day is a holiday in the United States that commemorates Christopher Columbus’s arrival in the Americas on October 12, 1492.
However, this holiday is somewhat controversial due to the negative impact Columbus’s arrival had on the indigenous peoples of the Americas.
Here are some age-appropriate activities for early years settings:
Crafts: Children can make simple crafts related to sailing and exploration, such as paper boats or creating their own imaginary maps.
Role Play: Set up a role-play area with a “ship” and let the children pretend to be explorers.
Map Activities: Show children a map of the world and point out the route Columbus took. You can also discuss how people used to believe the world was flat, and Columbus was trying to find a faster route to Asia.
Remember, the goal is to encourage understanding and respect for all cultures and perspectives. It’s important to discuss history in a way that recognizes both the achievements and the mistakes of the past.
