If you are studying Peru in your home or school classroom, you will want to bookmark this collection of Machu Picchu lesson plans, videos, books, and more that I found while researching.  

Surprisingly, there wasn't as many resources as I had expected when I began looking for them online. These are the most kid-friendly ones that I saw and felt would be a good fit for a unit study of Peru. Enjoy!
