About PrezFacts
OUR PRESIDENTIAL EDUCATIONAL PRODUCTS
PrezFacts offers fun ways for anyone interested to learn more about our U.S. presidents. While our products are geared primarily to middle-school students and educators, we invite history lovers, lifelong learners, and families to learn about American presidents and their lives before and after they were in office. We update our PrezFacts products with each administration.
PrezFacts Map of Presidential Sites
All the points of interest for the presidential tourist are detailed on this carefully curated U.S. map. You’ll find sites of interest related to all U.S. presidents: birthplaces, homes, museums, and libraries. The full-color, color-coded map is available as a downloadable piece. We’re always researching fun presidential facts and attractions so we can update our map accordingly.
Coming Soon:
PrezFacts Baseball Cards and More
We’ve created the Presidential Baseball game—a set of collectible game cards—for additional PrezFacts fun. Each card in the set features a cards (one per president) with portrait of a U.S. president on one side and facts about that commander in chief on the back, including one challenge faced by each, such as health problems and terrorism. Identifying each president and describing their challenges are part of the game. These make a great gift for your favorite presidential scholar to collect or share with young ones in their lives, or to use for social studies classes.
Coming Soon:
A Young Adult Book about U.S. Presidents
This book is designed to pair with the card game. It has a one-page biography of the social, historical, and geographical aspects of each president; a section on major national events and lifestyle details during each presidency; and the numbers and party affiliations of the Congress and Supreme Court judges during each administration.
About Debby Nedelman
MEET DEBBY NEDELMAN – THE PERSON BEHIND PREZFACTS
Debby Nedelman, a special education professional with a particular interest in American history, has been fascinated by U.S. presidents since her early childhood. Her PrezFacts project is a labor of love, the result of a lifetime of research, fact-gathering, and visits to some of the historic sites included on the map. She created PrezFacts to help educate middle schoolers, newcomers to the U.S., and anyone with a passion for American history in a fun way. Here’s what she says about why she created PrezFacts:
“One of my earliest memories is going to Washington, D.C. to see the Lincoln Memorial. Ever since then, I have been excited by our country’s history, especially the presidents. I was surprised to learn that there are no maps to indicate the presidential homes, museums, and libraries, so I created my own.
“Although many Americans are relatively recent U.S. citizens, the history of American presidents becomes a shared history, almost a shared ancestry. My favorite presidential sites are ones where I can understand what made them who they were, warts and all. I enjoy experiencing the culture, furnishings, clothes, books, and hobbies of the presidents and their families.”
