When your children come home and tell you that they have to learn the 50 U.S. states and their capitals for their next test, you might like to make it easier and more fun for them with a song. I found this cute video on YouTube.

Learn the 50 U.S. States and Their Capitals

As I’ve mentioned in other blog posts, song is very effective way to learn anything. The rhythm and the rhyme trick your brain into remembering what comes next. There’s a built-in momentum that automatically carries you forward and the words just seem to come tumbling out of memory. Next time your child, or even you, need to learn the 50 U.S. states and their capitals, come back and learn this song.
