The age range for the course is a guideline, not a requirement. I am often asked about younger students that parents believe are ready for the subject matter and length of time spent in class. In my view, parents know the readiness of their students better than anyone else.
For information and graphics suitable for young students, I will rely on sites such as the National Archives (https://www.archives.gov/research/foreign-policy/cold-war), Congressional Research Service (https://crsreports.congress.gov/product/pdf/R/R44891), and Presidential Libraries. Information will also come from textbooks such as the "AMSCO Advanced Placement Edition of United States History" which is used in high school courses -- and I am a grader of the tests for advanced placement courses given through Educational Testing Service.
