Review by Dustie
What a beautifully done course! This is the type of geography book that can engage kids with a variety of learning styles. It is full of information, and it includes amazing photos. I also love that the message of God’s love and grace toward mankind is woven throughout. Encouraging the students to pray for the people of these nations is such a special and meaningful part of this course.
The activities are fun and engaging, and they help solidify what is being studied. The recipes are especially fun! There’s also a neat activity that involves making postcards from the places “visited” to send to family members or friends.
This is a fun course to add along side world history, or you could do it just for fun! It would be a fun family-style course.
