Dear Parent or Teacher,
This project is a labor of love for me. I originally developed this game for my 3 year old daughter after I read a study in a parenting magazine about the poor geography skills typical of today's children.
I sincerely hope your kids enjoy this game as much as my daughter does.
If you have feedback or any technical issues, please don’t hesitate to contact me. I look forward to your input!
