In reply to Susan Evans. Thanks, Susan! Kids do retain so much more when they can experience the different cultures rather than simply reading about them in a book. :-)

What fun geography activities! When children can experience different cultures, they are more likely to retain the information they are learning about geography.

In reply to Carol. That's a wonderful idea! We have several large maps that would be fun to put on the dining table. My kids would also be moving plates and dishes around to see parts of the map while we're discussing history. :-)

We used to put maps underneath a clear plastic cover we put on our dining table. It was an easy way to learn lots of geography. Only drawback was the kids were always moving plates etc around so they could see the parts of the maps beneath them.

In reply to Mother of 3. Kids learn so much through movies, travel videos, books, and foods. It's great fun too! :-)

Definitely! My kids loved the Little Travellers series of movies as well as Families of the World and Travel with Kids; we did so much geography through movies and still cover a lot with travel videos, books, and foods.
