Have them think of a name for their country, then allow them to create their own flag.
Ask them a few of the following questions to help jump start their imaginations:
Who will live in your country?
What kind of plants will your country have?
What are some things in the U.S. that you would not like to be in your country?
What kind of rules will you have there?
Have them draw a picture of their new country and describe it to the rest of the class (or family).
This is "Amomica"
Here, the trees are made of spinach and redvines, the rivers are made of fruit smoothies. The main sources of transportation are Magic carpets and dancing dolphins. In Amomica there are no bugs or spiders....and the volcano grants your weather wishes.
This is Tia Land: A land where everyone plays music, and the lady bugs eat the spiders. To get from here to there you must ride the birds, and if you want a snack, Tia Land is known for it's big juicy strawberries, as well as its delicious coconuts.
This is a fun one for moms too. Give it a try!
