Free Printable Timeline Notebook Pages
Download these free printable timeline notebook pages to make your own history timeline notebook.
A timeline is an excellent tool to help children visualize history. Somehow it seems to help all those people and events come together into one continuous story. In addition, it provides an ideal way to review and cement what has been studied.
While younger children may prefer a large wall timeline, many older students tend to prefer timeline notebooks. And if you’re already using notebooking as a learning tool in your homeschool, a timeline notebook may be a great fit for your family.
We used these timeline notebook pages with Mystery of History (Vol. I), but they will work equally well with ANY history textbook or study method.
The newly updated download contains 107 printable timeline pages with dates from 5000 BC through AD 2039.

The Best Timeline Figures for a Timeline Notebook
The best timeline figures I’ve found are the ones from History Through the Ages. I love that the figures are realistic and not cartoonish. We color them with colored pencils, and the figures seem to almost pop off the page.
This completed page from my daughter’s timeline notebook gives a closer look. The quality and detail of the timeline figures is absolutely amazing!

I have three kiddos and just getting started with homeschooling. They are 5,7 & 9. Would you consider creating one of these for each of the kids or just completing one together as a family?
Hi, Sara! If your kids are going to be studying history together, I’d probably just make one timeline notebook to use as a family. If they are each doing history individually, it might work better for each of them to have their own. There is no right or wrong, though, so definitely do whatever works best for your family! 🙂
Hi I am Lizandra from Brasil Im helping mothers to build their timeline can I share your link with your blogs name. I have your timeline from five years ago… and I was sending with that name. (Contendathome) But now I found hear your new link.

Hi,
I would like to use these , am I would like to be able to print them double sided.
What do I do, so they don’t print upside down on the back?
Hi Lora,
You’ll probably need to change your printer settings, but unfortunately I don’t know the specifics for your printer. You could also print one page at a time and flip the paper to print on the second side, but that might take quite a bit of time. :/
