    This document provides an activity using nesting dolls to help children understand geographic location hierarchies. The activity involves discussing the school's location and having children fill out and assemble cut-out dolls representing the planet, country, state, town, neighborhood, and street where their school is located. The nested dolls are meant to demonstrate how political divisions like states are contained within countries, and communities like neighborhoods are within larger geographical areas.

    Use this activity to accompany a lesson on location.


    Many children struggle to understand how states are
    “inside” of countries, and cities are “within” states. If
    available, bring a real set of nesting dolls (or toddler
    stacking cups) to explain the concept.
    Discuss your school’s location and have children fill out
    the lines accordingly.
    Children color and cut out the dolls, then can staple
    together to take home.
