My favorite puzzle maps

Since my brother lives in Africa, we talk a lot about it to the girls. We have globes and they love pointing out Liberia. They also love pointing out "Chicken" but that is a different story. (There seems to be a mental block on the country of Turkey)

We bought this Africa puzzle and we love it. Since many of you have children from Africa, or are interested in teaching your kids about the cultures and countries around the world I thought I'd pass on this review. GEO Puzzles makes puzzles for all the continents, well, almost all of them. They aren't the kind of puzzles little kids can do by themselves but that isn't really the point. There are some very small pieces so keep them away from babies. All of the pieces are shaped like an individual country so kids can get to know the shape and location of the countries along with the name and capital. We usually have to do this puzzle at least once a day. My girls love it. Yours probably will too. Just be prepared to do it with them!
