Seterra
Kids click places on blank maps against the clock, learning countries, capitals, states, flags and rivers.
Seterra works like a stack of flash cards laid over a blank map. A place name appears, kids click where they think it belongs, and a timer and score keep the pace up. The site lists more than 400 quizzes: U.S. states and capitals, every continent, world flags, rivers, mountain ranges, cities and islands, and, a little unexpectedly, a science corner with organs, bones and other anatomy. Shorter rounds, such as the countries of South America, look like they take a minute or two, so the pull of one more try is strong. A learn mode lets kids study the map before being quizzed, and printable versions offer practice on paper. Kids who enjoy beating their own times will probably keep coming back, and progress can come quickly.
