Toddler Geography, and Eurodishes

lilly_world_map_master.jpgThis-Two Year Old is a Better Geographer than You (in the All Points Blog) caught my attention,  just too cute to pass up.  The 2007 YouTube videowas originally a response to the Miss Teen USA South Carolina answers a question. (See Sept 2007 post Sniggering).  Apparently Lilly was later on Oprah, and Jay Leno.  The video has been viewed over 4 million times.  Maybe it would be nice if more parents played map games like this with their kids.  map_plates_from_what_on_earth.jpg

Or you could buy these plates and teach them that there are just eight countries in Europe.  (The makers might have at least made a toothpick dish out the Netherlands.)
