Teaching kids about states - This is a great place to start (for lack of any kind of alphabetic or first to last state order). If you like potatoes, you might be fond of this one:
Idaho: One State Among 50 That Offers a Fun Lesson for Summertime Learning
If Idaho is too far for you to visit, take a virtual field trip. Get out a map of the state and let your child run his or her finger along the roads and rivers. Get a miniature doll or car and roll it over the map. If you like, make a 3D version of the state. Study the hills, mountains, valleys, etc. and recreate it with clay or other crafting materials.
Use your imagination and make learning come alive for your child.
My daughter, Eliana, fell in love with elephants at the age of 2. Watching her with her elephants made me realize the connection with learning: Big elephant ears help you learn by listening and an elephant never forgets! There are countless other analogies - Come and open up your elephant ears and never forget to learn large with my daughter and me!
