The curriculum spans a 49 week period but I encourage you to enjoy it at your own pace, especially if you invite your younger children to the feast. I have aimed this book at a wide range of ages, but it is typically suited to children aged nine to fourteen.
Meandering Mzansi functions as a comprehensive curriculum guide and source book but, having said that, please do not expect to see typical “end-of-chapter” questions contained within its pages. Some chapters include a few craft suggestions but these are by no means crucial to the understanding, assimilation or consolidation of the material. I am, however, a firm believer in narration and I urge you to gently encourage your children to tell you what they have heard you read to them.
