A great classroom resource, Little Known Facts of American History is full of surprises that an effective teacher or parent can use to make history interesting and more relevant to kids. The program is divided into two parts. First, a series of tidbits on topics such as how time zones and road maps came to be; where the Ferris wheel came from; the invention of tissue paper and potato chips; how the YWCA was founded; the first stagecoach drivers, telephone operators, and professional baseball umpires. The second part has a series of stories unified by the theme of pioneers and explorers, looking at less-well-known personalities such as Jedidiah Smith, John Colter, Hiram Bingham, and Nikolai Tesla. Unlike adults, kids won't want to sit through the whole tape in one viewing, but teachers should think about showing different snippets over the course of a year-long social studies program. --Erik Macki
