Discover The Constitution Kids
A story, a platform, and a shared civic purpose.
This project combines a narrative journey with a living learning platform to help people see how civic systems work in real life—and to give them clear ways to engage.
The story
Experience before explanation
Follow young travelers through pivotal moments in American history. Rights, power, and responsibility appear through choices and consequences.
The ideas behind the story
The ideas that keep showing up
The story surfaces a handful of recurring civic ideas that guide every learning path, discussion, and reflection across the site.
The platform
More than a book
The platform applies the ideas to real context, supports educators, parents, and students, and evolves alongside new questions and events.
The author
Why Gary wrote this
