Great Teaching Tool for Kids
We purchased the Imagimake Mapology USA Map with Capitals for our 4-year-old grandson when we were moving from Arizona to Tennessee, hoping it would be a fun way to teach him about the states. It has turned out to be an excellent choice! Not only is it a fun puzzle to put together, but it’s also a fantastic teaching tool.He really enjoys doing the map with us, and we’ve noticed that he’s already starting to recognize some states just by their shape. It’s a great way to introduce geography in a playful and engaging way. The colors and pieces are well-designed, and it’s the perfect activity to make learning fun while spending time together.If you’re looking for a way to teach young kids about geography, this is definitely a great option!

Fun way to learn world and U.S. geography
This puzzle has it all for independent geography learning. It even includes flags with capital cities for every country and every U.S. state. This is a great independent activity to reinforce basic geography knowledge. My adolescent with autism has made great strides with this product! The price is surprisingly low for such a comprehensive and effective learning tool. I love it!!

Fun. Educational. A good microcosm of the world.
This is not so much a game as it is a somewhat self-correcting geography test. The puzzle pieces fit surprisingly well together, in spite of the fact that they’re glorified craft foam. You’ll have to watch your kid place the capital flags though, and try not to let them catch you surreptitiously looking up capitals you’ve never heard of on your phone or mouthing the words of Wakko’s United States to yourself because you forgot that Pierre is the capital of South Dakota.The little plastic flags come with sheets of stickers that have the name of a capital on one sticker and that country’s/state’s flag on the other. Pro tip: have an adult do the sticker placing, otherwise you’ll end up with a Canadian flag with “Havana” on the other side, which is fine if you’re going for really subtle political commentary, but that’s probably not going to help your middle schooler pass geography tests. If they still do geography tests in middle school. I don’t know; I homeschool, which is why I bought this thing in the first place.The world is, of course, a big place, and some countries are apparently more, let’s say, worthy of attention than others. Europe and the US get their own maps, but not even all of the European countries get their own little flag in the proverbial sand. Some of the states had to be combined into one puzzle piece because they’re so small, which led to an interesting conversation about how basically every debate in our country boils down to population density. I’d like to see a more complete version, even if the box has to be bigger.My kid made the mistake of trying to move the Europe puzzle, resulting in Central Europe falling apart in a jumbled heap that was hard to put back together. I assured him that that happens in real life every so often, so he shouldn’t worry about it.Rather like in Risk, South America has roughly 6 countries of note and none of them are the beautiful islands that anyone who plays real-life Risk (basically anyone with an off-shore bank account and a close relative in politics/the military industrial complex) would go on their vacay. Venezuela was troublesome–the Caracas flag slot wasn’t done right and the flag kept falling over. Maybe it’s a manufacturing error, maybe it’s a metaphor–you decide.Africa has only 8 flags and several countries are too small to be labeled. This is the biggest area of improvement. Again, I’d like to see a bigger version with all countries and flags. Half this continent feels like it’s changed since I memorized Yakko’s World, and it’s embarrassing that my kids know more African geography than I do.I’d also like to see a larger breakout of the Middle East, Asia, and Oceana because I’m a product of a time when our school system acknowledged Mesopotamia for a few thousand years and then forgot it ever existed, and the only Asian country was China until WWII, and then you learned about battles but with a vague understanding of them happening “somewhere in the Pacific.” A good number of countries are flagged, but not all, so I’d love to see more completeness, if nothing else because Moana 2 is coming out and I still don’t really have a solid grasp of where the Heart of Tafiti was supposed to go.A note about putting the game away–I guess I guess I’m a bad American because I didn’t put the ol’ US of A first. I put the world in the box first, then Europe, and tucked the flags to the side. I thought tension would hold the pieces together enough to transfer the puzzle to the box, but when I went to put America on top, the states fractured faster than in the aftermath of the election of 1860, or possibly 2024. Oops. Do yourself a favor and use the enclosed cardboard to put America first, then the other puzzles, and chuck the flags in wherever they fit.In all, I’m glad I got this–it’s more fun to place flags in foam than it is to write a boring geography test. My flag recognition is terrible, which I was reminded of all over again during the Olympics, so I’m sure this will help ME learn as well as my kids. I’m rather hoping the company comes out with some expansions, but a bigger set with flag slots for every country would be even better. Even if they don’t, this covers a good chunk of the world’s countries and is a big help for the 50 states, and that’s a good start.

Children Learn Quickly
This is awesome for children learning about the state capitals even for adults that never traveled and would like to learn the name of the state capitals. It was a great Christmas gift for my daughter
by GeorgiaGirl
Multiple ages will enjoy
Kindergarten, 5th grader and a7th grader all had fun with this one.As I see gaps in their learning, I have used fun items like this one. Extremely versatile. East state recognition, country recognition and then the capitals are an added plus. We used it as a game to quickly learn the states and then locate where they are in the country by putting the puzzle together.After using this for one quick lesson on Saturday morning, right after breakfast, the older two went from totally clueless trying to understand states from countries, continents, to naming almost all 50 states from memory. The kindergartener at least knows what state and city he lives in and could read some of the state names. Puzzle is made of foam, so be careful with the more delicate states, but it survived three boys! Small investment, great return!

The Sticker Situation
Got this for Christmas for my son, he likes it, the colors are vibrant and the puzzle is thick so it’s sit as flimsy,My 3 star is because you have to put on all the stickers. And man, it is time consuming. I would pay more to have the stickers already placed on the flags. Also on the States map, many of the east coast starts are just abbreviated, there is not actual puzzle piece, so I didn’t love that.But other than that I think the price is good for what you are getting.

Great puzzle!!
My 6 year old loves this puzzle! Such a great educational tool

Está muy detallado y muy bien hecho
by Drvish
My 6.5 year old is obsessed with countries nowadays and asked Santa for country puzzles for christmas. He was delighted to receive this gift from ‘Santa’ and enjoyed sorting the countries and their flags.Good quality, colourful, soft and comfortable foam like material though I am not sure how long it will last. I made sure my son was gentle with it when he played and put the countries all in their slots before packing it again, so I am hoping he can use it for longer.Europe was a separate puzzle which made sense due to the number of countries and their relative sizes. Flags came as stickers that we had to peel and stick on the little flag shapes given. Easy to peel, flags and capitals were side by side on the sheets for easy identification. I realised later that I stuck some of flags upside down which my son spotted and corrected me (my bad!).Attractive and informative for kids. Happy with the purchase!
