Below you can links to coloring pages, paper dolls and other resources related to various historical and cultural figures from the Dover Sampler. These may be eventually removed, so snag them while you can. They do have some limitations on how you can use them, but using them for home use with your kids or in the classroom should be fine. I've organized them below by last name, birthdate, and by category (entertainers, politicians, ect.), and I'll be adding more to this list as I discover them. I also have another list organized by Era which has other historical printables.

I've used resources from Dover for many years now. Love their stuff! and love paper dolls. They are a fun add-on to our homeschool lessons.
ReplyDeleteI had a paper doll book from Dover back when I was a kid (a couple of the ones I've seen on their site)! Love those!
