Printable Paper Soldiers

I was working on lesson plans for the boys and decided to have Q do a set up of one of the Civil War battles. Like a diorama, but not in a box.

I remembered seeing a website that had printable paper soldiers from every era. But I could not find it. Advanced search in Yahoo! finally got me exactly what I wanted. In fact, there where only 5 sites that all linked to the same place.

Junior General is the site. They have the Monitor, artillery soldiers, weapons, cavalry, walls, stands, regular soldiers, Zouave soldiers, and more. They are black and white, so they'll have to be colored. Each soldier is only about an inch high. They also have battle specifications, so you can set them up accurately.

And no matter what era you're studying, I'll bet they have some printable paper soldiers.

You can bet we'll post a picture when it's all done.
