{Spice Up Your Homeschool} State Quarters

Want a fun way to learn Geography and US History at the same time? Look no further than your kids piggie bank or your change purse. I think it would be great fun to search the house for the quarters currently in your possession and then create a list of the ones you need to complete a set of 50. Now I’m not talking about looking for specific mints, but just finding all 50 to lay out on a big map of the US!

Did you know they also made US Territories and now are onto National Parks? A few states are getting a second design that shows even more history! Kind of an exciting activity that you can do to bring in other family, friends, or co-op members. You can ask your neighbors or call up a relative to see what quarters they might have. You can also cheat and check with your local banks.

This project could very well trigger and all out 50 States Notebook learning project. Do not get surprised if your kids get hooked on learning some history and geography!
