This fixed layout e-book is like an activity game with pop-ups. It shows your child the location of each state in relation to each other, its nickname, as well as the numerical order of statehood. This is done in two parts.
In Part 1, your child interacts with a map of the states. Here is how it works. Each two-page spread has an outline map with two states highlighted in different colors. Tapping twice on one of them activates a pop-up showing an enlarged view of the state plus its name and nickname. Tapping twice again hides the pop-up. By simply tapping (or clicking) on the screen your child learns the location of all the states, their nicknames and their shapes.
(Note: Close all pop-ups before turning the page. If a one is left open, the next page will have an open pop-up. On a Kindle Fire, tapping on the second state should open a new pop-up and close the first one at the same time.)
In Part 2, your child sees the numerical order of the states. Here is how it works. Each of the pop-ups from Part 1 is now on its own two-page spread. They are presented numerically from Delaware to Hawaii, in the order the states were admitted to the union. There is no tapping here, just flip the pages from state to state.
With this book your child has two options for learning, or playing.
Two more maps are at the end of this book. One has the two-letter postal abbreviations for the states. The other has numbers indicating their order of admission to the union.
