The other night at dinner we were looking at the map of the U.S. that I recently hung above the table. I had forgotten that we had it and had been planning to buy one, but a week ago Arwen found a mailing tube and opened it and pulled everything out and there it was. I guess curious, destructive children are useful sometimes...
Anyway, we started talking about how I remembered learning the states and capitals in the 5th grade and that since Sierra is 5th grade age that she should learn them this year, too. This lead to Rand quizzing me on all the states and capitals, which lead to Sierra and Kali pulling out the atlas and quizzing Rand on the capitals of all of the countries in the world.
By the time we were done it was way past the girls bedtime. Oh well, anytime the girls want to be geeky they can stay up as long as they want. Geography...check...
