Country Toad provides practice in learning countries and their capital cities. The target word appears under the toad, with the countries in the form of lily pads that float to the toad.

Mostly everybody knows this game and enjoys watching it. Why don't we use this game for teaching purposes as well? I tried it with my students when we were covering the topic "countries and nationalities" and they liked it a lot. They even told me that they tried playing this game on other topics as well. So, go ahead and try yourself!

Like it very much and will play at home.

This game will develop learners' knowledge of countries and their capitals (the age of children can be 11-13). Kids read the four capitals to match with the proper country.

Geography Vocabulary Spin off - Countries, Cities, Continents, Natural World & Landmarks This is a classroom game where you spin the wheel and students answer questions to score points.

This is a nice LISTENING activity with audio video materials. U can have ur child watch this. After watching perhaps ur child decides to become an interviewer or a weatherforcast man as my sister did. While watching the previous activities she (my sister) decided to become a cook and then she changed her mind and decided to become a weatherforcast woman. The activity is created by the British Coucil. This is a good opportunity to teach your child the names of the countries, continents and flags and quite a lot of adjectives, of course, everything in the target language. Ok, I guess I stop here, as I feel myself like an advertiser. Watch and test it and make ur own judgments. HAVE FUN KIDS.

Read about facts and match them to countries. Not as interactive, but could work for lessons where you discuss geography and agriculture. 

The game will help the learners to remember the locations in the world more easily. The more they play the faster they can drag each country map to the correct location in the Earth. My neighbour' s 14 and 15 year-old children found the game quite entertaining and wanted to try it again to do it faster.

a very fun and informative game!!!! I will play it myself for several times to improve my geographic knowledge!!!

A very useful, fun and informative game!!! I should play this game myself to improve my geographic knowledge!!! :)

A useful educational game that brushes up your notion of different countries, teaches how to identify their flags and match them according to places where they belong to and helps to easily memorize them. It's interesting for beggining level of students.

Alice is a bot (robot) with A.I. (artificial intelligence). You can chat with her, and she'll speak back to you. She never gets bored or tired of talking with you. She can answer math questions, tell you where most countries are and what their capitals are,and she even knows a few pretty funny jokes. She at times makes mistakes, but overall performs very well. She can understand you a lot better if you type carefully. Your students can chat with Alice to practice English, but they have to try to type and spell carefully. They need to take their time, and think about good grammar, good vocabulary and making good sentences. They can use their conversation as a practice time to apply what they have learned in English. You can chat with Alice anytime. The first 2500 exchanges each month have more animation and even have speech. I tried chating with her for half an hour and I should confess that I fell in love with her! She can nicely initiate discussions or answer your questions. A great tool to both practice language and also learn new things from her.
