The United Kingdom

These were some of the books we read or looked at this week.  We were trying to learn about the United Kingdom, but it didn't really go too well.

I think part of the problem was that I didn't find any good DVDs for us to watch.  I did get a few "Travel With Kids" DVDs from the library, but they are a bit annoying.  D hates the little history lesson that is included in each episode and says the pop-ups go off the screen too fast for her to read.  Plus the couple in the videos put their 7 year old in a stroller and I just don't agree with that.  Our other problem was that I didn't find that many storybook type books to go with the theme.

Oh well, we'll try again next week with South Africa!
