I'll have to look into the Story of the World. I've heard that mentioned before on this board. We used studies weekly this year, especially since it was our first year. It was very simple and straight forward, but follows the state GLCE's. The story of the world sounds like fun because it actually follows the natural progression of time versus the skip around method used in public schools. Do you use the workbooks?
I hate to say I was never very into history. It would be nice for my kids to enjoy history versus the "memorize it until the test" view that we took in school.
