Family History Just for Kids

A website created for the Boys & Girls Clubs of America by Ancestry.com

Celebrating a Century of Community
For 100 years, the Boys & Girls Clubs of America have given young people a safe place to learn, grow, find inspiration — and of course, have fun. Now, Ancestry.com is giving kids involved in Boys & Girls Clubs of America yet another life-enhancing activity: Exploring their family history.

What’s so Fun About Family History?
We’re all unique. Our family stories are too. Unfortunately, it’s easy to lose touch with the generations of people who helped make us who we are. What if you were related to someone famous? Descended from a pioneering scientist? The answers are out there. You just have to know where look to discover your family story.
