If you can turn anything into a game, do it!

We are in the process of studying the states and capitals. Sure, we could just memorize the information OR we could play a game.  .

My girls were so excited when it came Geography time and I pulled out the State and Capital Memory game. I just created cute little cards, printed them out and laminated them. Easy! Now, even my 3 year old is learning her state capitals.

On days like today when it’s rainy and dreary – it always helps to have some homemade educational games on hand.

These also work very well as simple flash cards. I am trying to teach my children to be productive with their time. So, if I am busy with one child and another one is finished with their current activity or is at a spot where they need assistance, I am teaching them to find something they can work on while they wait. This can be math flash cards, silent reading or something like these cards.
