GEOGRAPHY DOWNLOADS

We have been working on identifying continents and oceans mainly this week in Geography. One site that my kids really seem to like is Seterra. You download a small FREE program and then play "Choose the Correct Country" type games. So far, we have only used the European Countries. But they also have flags, cities, capitals, etc. It's quite fun and competitive!

Another download (much bigger, but still FREE) is Google Earth. So far we have just used it to explore our house (you can enter addresses) and some of the famous landmarks around the world (you should see the Eiffel Tower...pretty fascinating!)

One more website is Sheppards Software. We haven't gotten to play with it much yet, but we will definitely be using it more, later...it has geography games for different countries, landmark puzzles, animal quizzes, and much more...
