50 States

Kids can learn about U.S. history and geography by browsing information about each state, such as its physical location; highest point of elevation; state motto, bird, and flower; and state flag. With 50 States, kids can also get a sense of timeline since the app tells the order in which each state joined the union. Kids can practice memorization by learning facts and then testing how much they were able to recall by taking quizzes. However, the quizzes are a missed opportunity to add additional fun and interactivity to the app. 50 States is a handy pocket reference guide with a limited capacity to let kids practice what they've learned.
