The 50 States: Activity Book: Maps of the 50 States of the USA (Volume 2) (Americana, 2)

Made the 50 states fun!

These books made our road trip with 2- 9 year old's much more pleasant! We made 'goody bags' for the kids for our 2 day road trip down south. It was fun for them to use google to fill in the information and to see on the maps where we were and what it took to go on our route. They finished the book after the first 2 days, so had nothing to do on the way home, but we loved that it gave them some education on Spring Break! Highly recommend for this age group to give them something non-electronic to do on a family road trip!

The illustrations are really nicely done, it makes the book seem more expensive than what it is. My only critique - and this is not the author's fault of course- is that several times it asks the child questions about their home state. This is unfortunate for me because I got it as a gift for my godson, who is Swedish and lives in Sweden. I like to send him American themed things, and as he gets older and learns English in school he can handle more sophisticated books/activities having to do with the US. He has been to the US many times and been to several states so I was hoping this would be a refresher of things he's seen and learned. I suppose he can use the state I live in as his "home state" for the purposes of those pages. But overall a really well done book!

Great start to learning about our 50 states, anything that lets you learn more about where you live is a win in my book.

In a world of electronic pacifiers where our kids are becoming zombies, there's still some good old creative-provoking activity books out there for long road trips! This one is great for kids from 7-12 and it really is a great educational guide too! Everyone in the car will learn something when the kids start asking questions about what they are reading within this activity book. Mission accomplished!

This is a wonderful resource and accompaniment to The 50 States Book. Fun and engaging activities are perfect for studying states or on a family road trip. I thought the pull-out poster was a really nice addition. Once side is a fun, full-color, poster of the USA. The other side has all of the state flags in addition to all of the US Presidents through 2016.

Here is a great book full of very cool illustrations and activities. The huge fold out pages are very cleverly designed and for those kids who like to memorize facts and have an interest in Presidents, Flags and that sort of thing, this is great. There is a page full of stickers that will entertain a child for about 5 minutes. So what else do you really get? There is a page for personalizing the book. This is very nice . There is a page for Delaware because it was the first state. The name Delaware gets lost in the text as that should have been bigger in the title for that page. There is a spread covering direction on a map: North-South and East-West. Okay. There are spreads for Animals, birds, misc animal groups, landmarks, etc. There is a lot to do, really there is. But, this is not organized by STATE. So if you are traveling WEST through Kansas, Colorado, Utah, etc. and you want information about where you are, you better look elsewhere for activities specific for any state.

I really love this book. Such fun colors and illustrations. My 5 year old is obsessed with the huge book 50 states so was thrilled when we found the activity book. Keeps learning fun, and I love products like that.

Excelente livro, as atividades são muito boas e chamam a atenção, os adesivos são lindos e o mapa grande no final para destacar é uma maravilha! Vou usar com meus alunos.

Great reading
