The United States of America - Geography by Mobile Montessori

Rantek Inc.

Ages 2 & up. Learn about the 50 states with this time-tested method by Mobile Montessori!

This simple, three step process to learn geography is being used by schools around the world. Here's how it works:

1. In the Learning Center, children can browse through the states, learning to pronounce each name, seeing the state shapes and location, and get to listen to a brief history and description of each state.

2. In the first Puzzle Map, children will enjoy assembling the map by searching for the state that matches the blinking shape on the map. As each state is placed, they will hear the name pronounced aloud.

3. The second Puzzle Map is the most challenging. Search for the state that matches the name displayed at the top. The name will be heard aloud so young children who cannot read will know which state to search for.

We've published apps using this method for over five years with fantastic feedback from both parents and teachers.

Thanks for supporting Mobile Montessori's educational apps.

“I've been looking for ages for a moving map on the iPad and iPhone for use with fsx and this is just that with added benefit of being able to view my cockpit from downstairs watching TV when doing a long haul flight.”
- S1Agatho

You love your flight simulator. It’s fun to pilot your own aircraft thousands of miles, over mountains and oceans. The view is pretty spectacular too. The only thing that could make your flight simulation experience better would be if you could watch your craft’s progress while on the go. After all, you’re flying through the air, free as a bird, shouldn’t following your flight route be just as mobile?

The answer is, “Yes!” of course and now you can have the freedom to follow your simulated flight, from anywhere at any time, thanks to FSXFollow. This is the app you need, to watch your aircraft wing its way across a moving map. Follow the flight line, see where you are, at all times.

Guess that’s just one more example of the freedom you get with this application. If you want another, FSXFollow connects to the flight simulator directly through our free PC client. There’s that word free again, as in, “free to move around and still follow your flight,” or “flying freely yet always knowing where you are.”
