Geography according to Nyla

Nyla's new shower curtain has a huge map of the world on it, and she's been learning some impressive geography for a 3-year-old: she can point out Africa, China, Iowa, and Kentucky. However, I was a little suspicious that she was memorizing the specific colors on that map, and would struggle on a new map in which Kentucky was not necessarily blue. Over the weekend we showed her a new map and asked her where Kentucky was. She looked at it, puzzled for a while, then said, "There it is!" She was pointing to Lake Superior.
