Free Chronicles of Narnia Resource Unit

August 12, 2013 by Jo 40 Comments

Ah, The Chronicles of Narnia. It’s been such a pleasure to introduce my own children to these wonderful stories and see them fall in love with them as I did many years ago.

Are you reading any of the Narnia books rightnow? Extend your learnign with this Free Chronicles of Narnia Resource Unit! You'll find printables, lapbooks, crafts, and much more!

These classic books by C.S. Lewis have long been friends of mine since childhood and now are just as beloved by my own children. *Insert a big happy dance here. 🙂

Outside of the books and the major motion pictures, our family is also crazy about the The Chronicles of Narnia audiobooks done by Focus on the Family’s Radio Theatre.  They are very well done and we really enjoy listening to them on road trips.  We also enjoy The Chronicles of Narnia movies done by BBC.  These are a great introduction to the stories on film for children who are not quite old enough to handle the more intense scenes in the newer Narnia movies.

It has been a few years since we last read the series together and we decided we should include them in our family read-alouds for this year.  And because I am THAT homeschool mom, I started trying to hunt down free educational resources for Narnia to use with the books.

You can see what we did in our homeschool for the first two books here:

    Lol. We just turned on the BBC version of Lion Witch and Wardrobe when I saw a link for this resource page. Thank you. : )

      Oh, that is so funny, Maria! We usually borrow this version from the library 2-3 times a year for our younger crew, but I ordered it from Amazon today. They currently have it marked down to $5 so I couldn’t resist! 🙂

    What ages are your children? Would an 8 year old love it? I want to make sure my read-alouds are age appropriate but also mind-expanding…

      My children are 13, 7, 5, and 2. I think an 8 year old would enjoy these books!

      If you’re unsure about the books, your library is sure to have them. They are considered to be in the “fantasy” genre, but there is a clear distinction between good and evil. I also think it’s very easy to make connections to spiritual truths with the books as well.

      Hope that helps!

      I meant to say your library will have them so it would be easy (and cheap!) to screen them before you made the decision to use them as read alouds. 🙂

    Thank you so much for providing these resources! We have been reading through Narnia with our 5 year old for over a year, and she has just fallen in love with the series, especially Aslan and Lucy. In fact, she’s chosen to dress up as Lucy for Halloween this year–it should make for lots of interesting conversation starters! I look forward to adding these activities to our school next week!!! Thank you, again!!!

      You’re very welcome! I don’t know if you saw it, but there is a free Lucy printable paper doll on the list that your daughter may like. 🙂 We’ve really enjoyed tying in activities as we go along with the books in our home.

    I cannot believe I got this in me in box! My in-laws just gave our daughter, as a Christmas present, a trip to a camp in North Carolina this summer that acts out/discusses the Narnia books. We knew we were going to read them all, but to find this is such a huge blessing! What a great way to prepare for camp. Thanks so much!!

    Can you please re post the link to the pdg file for the Children’s Curriculum for Mission America?

    I was about to print it off for my church (starting a new Sunday School Curriculum), and now it suddenly will not open for me!

    Thank You so much for this site!

      Jenny,
      I’ve spent some time trying to find the document and unfortunately have been unable to do so. It appears that they are no longer providing access to it. The name of the curriculum was “Meet Him At the Lamp Post – A Children’s Biblical Journey Through the Wardrobe.” I was able to find a read only file online by searching the title online. Maybe that would help? Or maybe you could contact Mission America and they’d be willing to send you a copy themselves. If I find it somewhere else I will send you an email. Sorry I couldn’t be of more help – Jo

    I am a new Homeschool teacher and have boys ages 12-17 and was wondering what age group this series is for. Thanks

      May 14, 2014 at 10:41 pm

      Hi Elisha! Seems like the consensus for the reading level of the series is 8 and up, but some say 10. I know my 8 year old does not have the reading skills to read these books on his own yet, but he certainly enjoys them as read alouds. So based solely on the ages of your boys, they’d be fine with the series. I was actually 15 or 16 when I read through the Narnia series for the first time. Hope this helps! And blessings on your new homeschool journey, I will be praying for you!
