Kid's Corner

Welcome to Kid's Corner! 


It's never too early to start learning about our government and the legislative process. The resources listed below will help you learn how our laws are made, the history of our great nation and much more. Invite your teacher to take a look at some of the fun ways to learn about our government too, on sites like Kids in the House.
