I found some neat books at bookcloseouts.com today called, Countries and Cultures for Young Explorers. They're on sale for $2.24 with the instructional fair sale. They seem to have some neat activities. I found India, Australia, France, and China
Anyway, if you buy $35 or more (which is easy to do...  ) you can use coupon code: lighthouse and password: bookcloseouts for $5 off your order.
I know they have had the Japan and Mexico books in the past, but I couldn't find them today.

Oh, Vicki- I have been eyeing those rubbing plates! They look like so much fun. Dh keeps telling me not to order things that we'll just wind up moving, but it's so hard to hold back!
