It is time for your children to step back in time and witness the life of one of the greatest Queens in British History. That’s right, it’s Good Queen Bess herself, Elizabeth I! The children will learn about Elizabeth’s family, the formidable Tudors, and of Elizabeth’s struggle to find her feet in a man’s world. They will see her turbulent childhood and watch the Princess rise to Queen.
The children will become lords and ladies at Elizabeth’s glamorous court and learn of her interests. They will learn about Elizabethan theatre and Master Shakespeare’s plays, and exciting exploration, meeting Sir Francis Drake himself.
Elizabeth will rule powerfully and alone before the children’s eyes, and watch her face one of the biggest challenges of her reign; The Spanish Armada.
