Okay kiddo, let's learn about Iron Age Switzerland!
Back before mommy and daddy were even born, there was a time when people in Switzerland were using a special kind of metal called iron to make tools and weapons. This was called the Iron Age, and it happened a very, very long time ago.
The people living in Iron Age Switzerland didn't have fancy machines like we do today to make things out of iron. Instead, they had to use some really cool techniques to make the tools and weapons they needed.
They would first find iron in rocks and then heat the rocks in a special kind of oven called a furnace. This would melt the iron and they could shape it into whatever they needed. Do you remember making a mud pie and shaping it with your hands? It's kind of like that, but with iron!
The iron tools they made helped them farm more efficiently and build better homes. They also made weapons like swords and spears to protect themselves from enemies.
The Iron Age was a very important time for Switzerland because it helped the people there to develop new skills and tools. It was a time of change and growth, and it set the stage for the future.
So that's Iron Age Switzerland, little one. Cool, huh?
