Geography is one of our favorite subjects! We love to explore the world and learn all about other places in the world and how people live there. 

Over the years, we have enjoyed many different resources and created our own! 

We love living books and literature set in beautiful places. We love to go on adventures through the pages of a book. 

We enjoy songs that help us memorize geography facts and games that help us remember country names and capitals. 

We have enjoyed living textbooks and created our own curriculum with unit study fun. 

We have enjoyed cooking and baking from around the world. Unit studies have been a blast, too! 

Finally, we love to read and research so we can learn more about other places. 

Here are some of our very favorite geography resources. We hope you will enjoy them, too.

A Child's Geography

This geography curriculum series is delightful. The first 2 volumes were written by Ann Voskamp and the rest are written by Terri Johnson. Both of these Christians authors are gentle writers that bring their readers on a voyage to exciting places and sights around the world. Some of the different volumes include: A Child's Geography: Explore His Earth, A Child's Geography: Explore the Holy Land, and A Child's Geography: Explore Medieval Kingdoms.

Seterra FREE Online Quiz Game

This game is free to play online. It's easy and fun. My kids loved it! I always play it before I start teaching a year of geography. It's a great refresher and fun way to learn all the countries of the world. You can play Seterra here.

Audio Memory Geography Songs

This is harder to find nowadays, but I did find it on Amazon. You can purchase Geography Songs Audio on CD and Geography Songs DVD. Both have catchy tunes that children will love singing along to.

Travel God's World Geography

Travel God's World Geography, is a middle school (5th -8th) geography curriculum we created over the years, combines conversational text with unit study fun, mapping, crafts, living books, and research projects. Children will have a blast making their passport and traveling around the world continent to continent while they  explore landforms, cultures, missionaries, natural resources, businesses, transportation, and more!

Travel God's World Cookbook

Travel God's World Cookbook takes families from continent to continent, too, but this time everyone gets to explore different countries and their famous sights, flags, and delicious recipes. You will love learning geography in your kitchen.

Travel to London Unit Study

You can join our family on a trip to London, England where we explore the sights, learn history, craft, listen to music, enjoy art, read aloud, bake, and cook our way to learning fun! Travel to London Unit Study is a blast for all ages!

Travel the World Country Report Lapbook

Travel the World Country Report Lapbook is a research project for older elementary and middle school kids that culminates in creating a keepsake lapbook they can share with loved ones! Choose a country, read, research, and put together a lapbook. Everyone can work on a different country or the family can work together.

Great list of resources! We loved to focus on the foods, art, and music of other cultures as we studied geography.
