Dinner Time Map Learning
March 21st, 2009 by Empress
One of the best things we ever did for learning the countries and landmarks of the world, was to take a full sized poster of the world and place it under a clear tablecloth!
Every time the kids and I sat down at the table, we would look at the map! We would laugh when the ketchup was covering Italy, or challenge each other to find some city or body of water. We could point out areas that were in the news. Pretty quickly, my family had a very good sense of their world geography and it was fun, too!
