Each week there will be a post {or two or three} highlighting some links that have been collected and compiled on the Links by Subject for Schooling page on my blog. At this point, I plan to go alphabetically through the subjects because that’s how I am 
but the websites most likely won’t be alphabetized…sorry for any confusion!
Culture Cottage- I came across this site when my daughter was researching for World Thinking Day for Girl Scouts. It contains mostly crafts to do that are connected to a particular country/culture but it does have some information. I see that the site is in the process of moving, so visit both places.
KidsGeo- Geared toward K-5 {my guess} this site goes over basics of geography- the atmosphere, plants, animals, etc. Play games on the site also.
amMap- Interactive flash map. Although these maps are intended for use by websites, they work well for learning geography around the world. This can be downloaded for free or can be purchased.
Know Your States- Over at Jim’s Pages, there is a fun interactive game to help learn the states.
*It appears that the link on my Links by Subject for Schooling for this particular resource is not working. I’ll get that fixed ASAP.
Those are some of the links for Geography that have been collected. Stay tuned for more link ‘highlights’ every so often.
