The end of the year is upon us! Are you thinking about saving your family history as you meet with family this holiday season? Do you have children you would like to engage in family history or that are already interested?
Check out Stephanie Pitcher Fishman’s new free eBook Learning Through Family History available for a limited time so grab yours today! This eBook is filled with ways to engage children. If you enjoy the book, sign up for her newsletter on Corn and Cotton and The In-Depth Genealogist because I know she has some other things in the works for 2013.
Read through her book and think of ways you can incorporate more family stories and photographs into Sort Your Story this holiday season. And encourage your kids and grandkids to get started today!
Happy Holidays!!
