In our game will involve, of course, only geographical names. Play - adult and several children.
Before the game, an adult takes a pointer and shows the different objects on the map, calling the name of the object (sea, lake, city, and so on) and its name. For example: "the City of Paris, the Andes mountains, the Caribbean sea, lake Victoria... ". Each object can show one to three times, depending on the age of the children playing.
Then the children take turns choosing a pointer and show any of the remembered objects on the map and call it: "I know the city of London! (the Nile river, and so on). For the correct display of the player gets one point. Points can be recorded on paper or on the chalkboard. Or to give a correct answer any sign - button, stick, chip off some games and so on.

The game "Guess what it is? "
The game involves children who are familiar with the geographical map.
