hopefully not a weird question with everything that's going on, but do you have any recommendations about what geography toys/resources are best for kids? my little brother's really interested but I don't see him often enough to play globle with him or show him world maps (his favorite games rn) so I thought I'd give him something :} (just wondering if there's a good way to help him learn)

Online resources I'd recommend are sporcle and seterra for quizzes (the no borders blank map ones in sporcle are really fun), and for just looking at maps there's geamap, mapsland, gifex, library of congress, the rumsey historical map collection, the university of cape town, old maps online, the british library, and the national library of australia, there's many more but these are most of the ones in my bookmarks.

If you do want to encourage him to develop an interest in geography as a field of study, I would show him how some online geographical information systems (GIS) work, but I don't think I can link any useful ones because all I know are the GIS managed by the various Spanish institutions and ministries. I'd consider this important because geography is much, much more than memorizing features on a map, even if I've always enjoyed that (and if he's still in primary school/early secondary, it'll definitely be useful to memorize some countries). Those GIS allow you to pick and choose between many layers and a basic set of tools, so even if you're just curious and not in the mood for figuring some connections out, they have a lot more information than the set of printed maps, because not all that information has been actually mapped out and made available on those sites. For example, if you want to see the distribution of land plots where you live, it's simply easier, and probably the only option, to go look at the GIS an administration has made public, like the cadastre or the tax admin, than sleuth through all these sites and Google images for relevant already printed maps.

Day 2: Education

The marine biology lab could hardly be described as quiet, but the noise was starting to become common place to Isiri. Various electronics kept buzzing at her sensory pores, but now that she had learned to expect them, they weren’t as much a problem as they used to be. At least not when she was at depth in the tank, or barring a surge from the machinery whenever a portal opened. The humans didn’t seem to notice it, if they did they didn’t give any indication of it, but the fields got all jumbled whenever one opened, worse when it was close by. Still, the hum was manageable for now, and the mermaid did her best to drown out the din with a song of her own. Nothing complex, just a ditty to keep her mind occupied.

It was a calm between the escapades of her comrades, and she had taken a moment to rest. At least, she was going to, until the clatter of hard boots smacked against the smooth floor of the lab. Isiri smiled, and bent her fluke to lift her up to the surface. A pop and a spooling sound greeted her at the same time a grappling hook wrapped around a beam on the ceiling, right as her head breached the water’s surface. A mere moment later, Powder’s feet landed on the deck of the tank, a grin stretched wide across her face. She took a moment to spool the length of chain back to her grappling gun, holstering it quickly as she fired off her greeting. “Hey, Isiri!”

Isiri flickered her bioluminescence with alternating shades of blue, cascading along her spots in a hypnotic rhythm. “Hello, Powder.” Isiri’s voice hummed out with her usual burbles.

“You’re not gonna believe this!” Reaching into her coat, Powder procured something Isiri had been informed was called a “book.” This one looked thinner and a lot more colorful than the ones she had seen elsewhere on Sequence Charter. “I hit the motherlode, out with the salvage corps today, I found an entire shipment of Action Man comics! A whole series set!”

Nodding along, Isiri chittered with delight, only with the energy Powder was giving her, none of the meaning. "That’s great!” She tilted her head inquisitively, her massive blue eyes scoping out the shapes on the cover. “What does it do?”

“Do?” Now Powder tilted her head, the metal in her earring jingling softly as she moved. “It’s a book. You read it-“ A slight breath stopping herself before continuing. “Right, you can’t read.”

“I don’t get the big deal.” Isiri half protested, but only to egg Powder on; the many conversations she’s had about the subject did pique her curiosity. A permanent song to have just there? It could change communication for her people. Though the lack of light would be a challenge for those with less luminescent capacities than herself.

Powder sat down on the edge of the chair she had brought up to this level of the tank so many days ago, resting her chin on her hand while she figured out how to answer that. “Well, I don’t think I’m the one to yack about big deals. But I could show you how to read. Or… at least try my best to.”

“Oh-“ She hadn’t expected that, and judging by the flush of blush against Powder’s cheeks, neither did she. “I mean, if you’d like to try, I’d give it a chance.”

“Uh-“ The response caught Powder off guard, but then a glint lit up in her bright, brown eyes. “Right, can you, uh, get closer?”

Isiri stifled a giggle, wrapping her tentacles around the edge of the tank and lifting herself out of the water, and bringing just enough of a water bubble to keep her gills flushed. She plopped herself down next to Powder’s chair, and leaned in close, wrapping another tentacle around her arm. Her voice hummed low, melodically in Powder’s ear as her eyes fixated on the strange symbols written on the book. “Is this close enough?”

Powder grinned sweetly as she turned to the first page. “Perfect.”
