You should learn more about the history of Britain and Ireland
More to a point, buy this book for when your kids are a little older - www.amazon.co.uk/Horrible-History-Britain-Histories/dp/0439953952/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1342167638&sr=1-2 - It's currently in our work from the Book People, I gave it a read yesterday, it's excellent.

They keep doing shit things to attract more thick people.

There's a castle near us with loads of Cannons that were all filled with concrete
This guy has made it his life's work to get grants to turn them back in to working guns. Last year for fathers day my darling wife and my girls took me to the castle for a day of watching them all get fired.

I was in heaven. You don't want to breathe in the gunpowder smoke though, gives you the shits.
