Histories Mysteries

Trying to get my kids excited over things has been a challenge, but they love NCIS, CSI, etc. So one day I was looking around on FB (when bored I read FB articles) and I came across this idea. So I began to research the idea and there are so many different mysteries that can be searched and read about. So I started creating a card for each of the different mysteries and will let them choose a mystery to research and see where this will lead.

Links for some:
