Tips for parents and teachers
- Start with your own country, then try one far away.
- Look at each country's Flags of the World page first: it lists every state with its capital.
- Say the pair aloud ("Karnataka, Bengaluru") and play the same country a few times. The quiz picks states a child hasn't seen yet first.
