Learn the States! Playing the States of the Union game can foster a new curiosity about our country among children of all ages. Great for Travel! Contents include cards of all fifty states plus the District of Columbia in superb detail – state flags, mountains, rivers, national parks, historic sites and more. The full deck also makes a fascinating set of flash cards. Also included is a small key map of the US to aid in identifying the shapes of the states and learning their two letter abbreviations; Alaska and Hawaii are shown superimposed and in inset on the contiguous states at the same projection and scale.
