Cool history lesson

Much better than what happens to a turd after a Victorian took a dump

Sounds great man

Our god daughter 11 recently got a project on skateboarding; design, materials justifications, marketing etc. I had a great morning digging out old boards, stickers, books and videos. Schools have to pick things that will interest the kids and I think your lesson + that project are great examples.

Now they just need it reinforced that Scooters are evil

Sounds like you got there attention, good on ya. kids don't seem to be interested in much more than games consoles and smart phones these days.
When we were kids all i wanted to do was play out on my bmx
