1. Montessori Maps and Continent Boxes

2. Geo puzzles (the poor man's version of the Montessori maps) (not an affiliate link)

3. A little gem we just discovered: (free!)

4. Blob mapping

see this great blog post that explains what Blob maps are and has a video tutorial on how to do a blob map.

5. Geography Songs by Kathy Troxel (and also her States and Capitals CD)

  1. 6. POSTCARDS!!! I signed up my family on postcrossing.com and we have received hundreds of postcards from all over the world. Basically for every postcard you send, you get a postcard in return. Whenever we send or receive a card, we go to the world maps and try to find the country and if possible the city. The pictures on the postcard helps teach about the culture and language of that country. It's free and your only expense is the price of postcards and stamps.
