A few years ago, we went through the Ancient Egypt unit study from Gather ‘Round Homeschool. We had so much fun with snack and lunch themes during our mummy unit study! One of my favorite ways to bring a study alive for my kids is through fun avenues like this. Adding in a cute and engaging snack makes the study memorable for the kiddos. If you are studying Ancient Egypt and want to add in just a little more fun, try this mummy lunch! For a fun mummy lunch for kids, I used crescent rolls and sausages for an easy and tasty lunch!

Engaging Videos About Ancient Egypt
One of my favorite ways to homeschool my kids is to piece together fun unit studies. You can do this without it breaking the bank! In order to create a unit study that is free or nearly free, you can use your library for resources, look on YouTube for free videos, and also TPT for free worksheets. There are so many resources out there today! If you are learning all about Ancient Egypt, here are some of our favorite videos that we have used as a family.
