Below is the pack which we bought, it has a ration book, identity card and various other things in it which my daughter loves. This led onto a discussion about having identity cards today - mixed feelings here about that topic!
We finished up the whole project with a WW2 meal. Some of the recipes were found in this book.
Unfortunately the camera quality isn't fantastic as this was before she got her new one.
My daughter cooked the whole meal herself and did a good job too. She was very tired afterwards though ;o)

I haven't taken a picture of the menu but you can just about make out Toad in the Hole, Woolton Pie (vegetables with mash on the top) and at the far end of the table is Jelly, Syrup Loaf, and Honey Cakes and a variety of vegetables for those who didn't eat the sausages. Also a dish of M&M's because the soldiers ate them in the trenches because they didn't melt in their hands.
Books we read included:
The Diary of Anne Frank, Carrie's War,
The Blitz, The Singing Tree , Letters from Rifka,

We obtained the free teaching pack from Royal British Legion last November, it is available every year, so sign up and get it, it's full of great information specifically aimed at children.

I can tell how much time and involvement you put into this with your daughter! I LOVE all of the resources you provided and even purchased the book on Britain in the Blitz as it sounded fascinating and cannot wait for the CD! Thank you for sharing an AMAZING project and ideas which I will be able to use along with my son this summer.
