Check understanding

  • Retell the story of Romulus and Remus being raised by a wolf
  • Say that Romulus founded the city of Rome
  • Explain that this is a legend — a story people told, not necessarily true
“If your child saw a statue of a wolf feeding two babies, could they tell you it's the story of Romulus and Remus and how the Romans believed their city began?”
