Join a Roman Legion!

In the grand finale of our series of Ancient Rome with Kevin Hicks, kids will have the opportunity to make a Roman-style shield and gladius. Once they have made their kit, they will practice Roman military drills with a real-life Roman soldier. Once they have mastered the necessary moves, kids will be given a certificate of achievement for having become a Roman soldier themselves!

Kids do not need to attend the first two parts of the Ancient Rome series to attend the third. Each iteration of this series is designed to be standalone.
