Disclaimer: I received books to review. All opinions are my own.
What do we love in my house? Books! What kind? Educational, especially books from National Geographic Kids.
My kids always get Nat Geo Kids books for their birthdays, Christmas, and any other event I can find to gift them. Tbomb especially loves the Kids World Atlas and gets a new one each year. Snapper loves any book with maps.
The following are great for adventures, school, and even planning trips. Dive in and I'm sure you will find something your kids will love.
