General World Culture and World Geography Books: How to Make an Apple Pie and See the World by Marjorie Priceman Global Art: Activities, Projects, and Inventions from Around the World by MaryAnn Kohl- This is a great book to own, but most libraries will also have a copy of this that you can check out. There are lot of great projects that you can use at your discretion as you study the various cultures and countries. The projects are all rated by degree of skill...and I have found that many of the lowest rated projects are very appropriate for four and five year old children. Children Just Like Me: A Unique Celebration of Children Around the World by Anabel Kindersley This is a great book for showing traditional clothing that other children wear around the world. This is also a fairly common book and most libraries will have a copy of this. A Child's Introduction to the World Geography, Cultures, and People - From the Grand Canyon to the Great Wall of China by Heather Alexander I am a big fan of the "Child's Introduction" series of books. So when a fellow sonligher recommended this book I was anxious to check it out. Our library didn't have a copy of it, so I had to bite the bullet and purchase it. I am glad I did. This is a great reference book with tons of ideas to incorporate into your study of the world. This book will really grow with the child and you will probably find you are using it for years to come. Also, try to get your hands on a nicely illustrated multi-cultural cookbook made just for kids. I would suggest hitting your local library and searching for a book there. There are many, many great versions of these types of books out there. If that is not possible, here are some to consider: Kids Around the World Cook!: The Best Foods and Recipes from Many Lands by Arlette N. Braman Around the World Cookbook by Abigail Johnson Dodge Another good resource to check out is some traditional music from the culture you are reading about. This is another resource that I would utilize the library for if at all possible. I highly recommend the Putumayo Presents Series of world music CDs. Another great resource is the Wee Sing Around the World CD.
