I second those missceegee recommended. After reading Me on the Map, my kids drew maps. Four year old drew map of bedroom and six year old drew map of our house and yard. All three of those books were at our library. Then they drew maps of the world with 7 continents on large floor pad of paper.
Also, I am hoping to add the 10 days in… games that I read about on this forum.
For scheduling, we focus on history for a few weeks and then geography for a week or two. We spend about 2/3 on history and 1/3 on geography/cultures. When we get to American history, I think I will do 3 days history and 2 days geography every week. For us now, our history is chronolgical ancients and the geography is European countries with a little on each country’s history, but mostly the culture there now.
