I warn you: These games can be highly addictive.

1. On "click the state" 100% in 97 seconds
Not too bad for a Limey.

3. Place the states advanced (only shows 1 state at a time)
80% exactly right, average error 33 miles.

4. The advanced version is difficult.
It's pretty easy to place the states in relation to other states; it's far more difficult when you have to place a state in the middle of the country (like, say, Iowa).

5. That's where I muggered it up.
At least I always overlapped where their actual position was.

6. My kids have a dlightly different downloaded concpet of this game
And they can do it in under 4 minutes (which is great for a 5 and 7 year old. Hard to click and drag those states and line them up just so at their age.)
