Thanks to HistoKids USA you'll discover more than 7 centuries of U.S. History, famous people, presidents, wars, key events, everything is here!
For each correct answer you win a troop, this can be used to conquer the world, country by country. Every goal you win unlocks new troops.
In the adventure mode you will learn U.S. History with Abraham Lincoln. You'll find events to put in order, take a quiz and organise time periods.
The learning mode allows you to practice all topics. In this mode, you'll see presidents, wars, key events and periods in interactive timelines. You'll explore the thumbnails of the presidents and wars on a single screen, to get the whole picture. Finally, you can print the timelines, thumbnails and a list of the main events and periods.
The challenge mode will test your knowledge on key events and periods in a different way: you have to guess the correct year by putting it on a timeline. The highest points are scored when you guess the closest.
Each family member can have its own profile, so you can compare your progress to others.
All profiles can be saved on iCloud, so its even possible to continue your game on a different device, for example apple TV and IPad!
Let's play!!!

Lovely, comprehensive

I must say I bought this app not because I really want to learn about US history, but because I so like it’s sibling app, HistoKids France. I haven’t given it 5 stars because there is no way to temporarily exit the app to quickly learn about unknown topics, there are lots of those for me. I am irritated by the person who likes the app but gave it 1 star because of 1 piece of missing information. I think that sort of harsh, thoughtless rating hurts the developer (I mean financially!) who worked so hard to create an interesting, creative app.
Not fully functional

I’d LOVE to give this a full five stars, but two of the six games available in the “learning” section — the two that allow for the most actual learning — don’t work. The app just closes on itself. It’s too bad! I really want to buy the geography apps in the series but it’s tough to spend the money when you’re wondering how functional it will really be.
We Love the App but....

My friend Benny who is only 4 but already reads and writes at a 1st grade level has noticed that our newest President Donald Trump has not been added to the list even though he has been in office for 100 days. Please add him the the list because it is confusing g for children trying to learn about American History to not see this information updated. Thank you for your time.
