Place the 50 States

Here’s a fun little online game that reminded me of my childhood. It’s a great geography lesson for kids and pretty good at testing your skills.  Start by heading over to: https://www.addictinggames.com/puzzle/50-states

You do need to watch a commercial before beginning the game.

The interface is simple. Once it loads just click on a state and drag it to its rightful place on the map.

If you miss by a few miles, the game tells you just how far you’re off and directs you where to place the state.

Some states are easier to place than others. The game keeps track of how many states you’ve correctly placed. When you make a mistake, it tells you how many miles you missed the mark by.

Keep playing to improve your speed and accuracy.
