Yes, it's missing all the Eastern Block countries, and since when is Palestine a country? Carl says that's because it was probably on TV at one time, MANY years ago. Regardless, it's VERY creative!
my world geography sucks. :lol: ...i caught the czechoslovakia thing because i heard it somewhere, but i didn't catch the palestine thing because..well.. because i don't really know what/where that is (other than that it goes with israel somehow i think?) ... is this gonna get me kicked out of the homeschooling mums club? dd and i will be doing world geography together :lol:
Thank you Thank you Thank you!!! for listing all the countries.. I told hubby I will make ds learn the song.. and he thought I was crazy! Oh yeah.. I"m printing that list right now!
Palestine is basically the Arab name for Israel, but it is not a country. If you want to learn your countries, go to http://www.sheppardsoftware.com/ and click on "World Geography Games". My oldest has taught herself most of the countries this way; my youngest knows all his states, plus Central and South America.
crazymama - no problem, dd and i want to learn the song too! :lol: jackie - thanks, i'll go there and see what they have!
