Sketches in History | The Feather Quill

The 15-Minute History Podcast team welcomes you to a new season of Sketches in History. This segment, just for kids, shows that history isn’t just a story—it’s an adventure. Join Lottie Archer as she dives into her extraordinary notebook, where sketches from history come to life.

In this episode, she goes back to early America to witness a great debate and compromise. She finds a building full of arguing state delegates. George Washington sits in the corner, his head bowed, as tensions in the room continue to rise. Then, one delegate rises to speak, and from this speech comes one of the greatest moments in American History. Your kids will learn about the compromise, how early Americans formed the Constitution, and experience the moments where its formation almost didn't happen!

Listen and subscribe to the 15-Minute History podcast to hear Sketches in History every other Thursday. Got a favorite historical moment? Share it with us at 15minutehistory@gmail.com, and it might just make its way into the notebook!
