by Liesl - Homeschool Den · Published September 29, 2025 I have just started my second year teaching a Hands-On Science class for lower elementary students K-3 (ages 5-9 or so).

This 30+ page Farm Animal Unit includes matching pages, tracing, cut-and-paste activities, Farm Animals (and their babies) Montessori 3-part cards, as well as interactive notebook (lapbook) pieces. It is FREE to download through Oct. 10, 2025! Hands-On Geography Activities appeal to all ages from tots to teens!! We often start off with geography activities, whether that’s at the beginning of the year or when we are starting new history units. Geography activities can be fun & hands-on and provide the framework for understanding history.

I thought I would share age-by-age what kinds of geography activities we have done along the way. Way back when my kids were younger, I assumed that pin-maps and dough maps were just for the little ones. But even this year, with a middle schooler and two high schoolers we’ll be starting with geography activities and pin maps! Just a little while ago, I just finished printing out a packet of geography materials on the Middle East and Central Asia (see the top portion of the picture below) for the kids. We will be studying Ancient History this year. We’ll also be doing modern literature (using novels set in Afghanistan, Iran, Pakistan, India, etc.

I hope to make our Middle East pin map later today or tomorrow! 😊 There are so many fun things you can do with your kids to help them gain an understanding of the geography of our amazing world!
