Description:

When you get to the site you'll see a menu of games that includes:

• USA Jigsaw Map Game
• Latin America Map Game
• Asia Map Game
• Super Quiz Map Game

In some, you answer questions to place a country or capital city on a map. All of them will challenge your knowledge of the locations of countries and capitals worldwide.

Enjoy!
