We have been studying different countries this year in our geography curriculum. I love adding crafts and a good book to all our subjects, and geography was no different.
I wanted to gather all the crafts and books we have enjoyed into one post, I hope this is helpful and that you enjoy the books and crafts as much as we have.
Japan:
Read The Cherry Blossom Festival and make a Cherry Blossom tree with pink popcorn.
India:
Read T is for Taj Mahal and make a Taj Mahal bleeding tissue paper craft.
Read Grandfather Tang's Story and make a tangram puzzle.
Ghana:
Read Kente Colors and make a woven paper kente cloth.
Kenya:
