TrixieB Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Has anyone found a great iPad app for learning U.S. states & capitals, & Canadian provinces & capitals? We have Stack the States which of course doesn't include Canada, and it doesn't drill the capitals as much as I'd like, so I'm looking for something else...

Alessandra Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 We have looked for such an app and not found one. Stack... doesn't do the job. We got a few apps from iLearn (iLearn US States); in the iLearn World, Moldova is spelled Moldovia. Huh? So I would unrecommend that. So we have gone back to the computer and Sheppard Software, which really does the job superbly. I may also pull up some Quizlet list for extra drill, if needed. I'd love to hear too, if there are any great iPad apps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emcap Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 You said you weren't crazy about stack the states, but the bonus capital drop game on it helped my kids. Maybe you've tried that, but if not its worth a shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I shouldn't say I'm not crazy about STS, just that I think you can learn more from Sheppard Software. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrixieB Posted January 16, 2013 Author Share Posted January 16, 2013 I didn't know about Sheppard Software. What a great resource! My dd learned a bunch of the provinces & capitals just by playing the games on the SS site for a little while this afternoon. Thanks for mentioning it!

elizabeth rose Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Wow, thanks for the tip about Sheppard Software, I didn't know about them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alessandra Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 My dd reminded me that we also have TapQuiz Maps on the iPad. It is quite good app for learning where the countries are. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/tapquiz-maps-world-edition/id424151065?mt=8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
