I was just poking around on homeschoolestore and I saw a few ebooks for covering the election. Have you used any of these downloads or other sources? This would be for my 5th grader. I really don't want to put together my own study of the elections. I'd like something that explains the process, but won't take a lot of time or effort. We're already playing catch up after a cross country move, so keeping it simple is the name of the game for me. It just dawned on me that here we are in our second year of US history and I don't want to miss this chance for her to learn and observe the whole process. Any input would be appreciated!

I like the site Ben's Guide to U.S. Government for Kids (http://bensguide.gpo.gov/sitemap.html).

with my ds8, 9 and dd11. I'm getting the 6-12 level and figuring my younger ds's will just catch what they can. It looks rather fun and interesting.
