My daughter loves history but she hasn't developed much of a sense of time yet. I thought it would be cool to introduce her to timelines and maybe get a big timeline for the wall where she can plot the events she reads about and see their distance from each other.

I see a couple of diy wall timeline products online, as well as some preprinted timelines that look pretty extensive. Does anyone have experience with large wall timelines? I'm just curious about what works best, what you or your child liked, don't like, creative ideas for construction, etc.
