With the holidays upon us, we try to find more ways to engage with our families and connect them to our ancestors (without that glossy-eyed gaze staring back at us). One way I like to do this is with maps. Your genealogy software may have maps and be able to create an atlas, our you may be like me and just link to wing it in Google Maps (or Google Earth, if you are so inclined). I will bring my computer and just kind of walk the paths and talk about it.
You can print out maps that show this, or even video, but sometimes the children really like to move the mouse and get into it.
Here is a map from Ancestry.com that shows all the places my great grandfather lived (that I know about!).
