The Viking Answer Lady's List of Children's Books - The Viking Answer Lady has a great site that is well worth visiting for many reasons. The list of Children's books is just one of many.

The VikingsThe Vikings : 350 Years of Adventure to Unlock and Discover (Treasure Chests) - I have not ordered this one yet but it looks like a wonderful "treasure chest" of activities for children. The customer reviews at Amazon.com give the treasure chest 5 starts out of 5. One Customer review reads: This sturdy box comes with its own key and contains a delightful variety of Viking information and paraphernalia. There is a light cardboard Viking ship to assemble, a Hnefatafl game (a good board game for 2) with plastic pieces based on the Lewis chessmen, a sundial that needs to be calibrated for your location (directions included), cardboard runes and information about their use in divination, 2 posters (1 each on history and on mythology), and a small book that gives a good introduction to the Viking world. It's more than one rainy day's fun and should appeal to a wide age range. The board game is an excellent strategy game for all ages through adult and will be played long after the ship has disintegrated and the posters have lost their novelty.

Archaeology and Ancient History - The Vikings: Lots of interesting information including a Flash enhanced game from the BBC. Very interesting and entertaining site. Lots of things here that kids will find interesting and fun.
