Learning the USA's state capitals

This guy came up with mnemonics for learning the USA’s state capitals, along with some cute artwork: You are being redirected to: RightBrainedLearner.com

A time ago, in 1 or 2 hours I was able to memorise ALL 50 states and capitals, AND (!) locations. According to this article, I recommend: https://www.theologetics.com/posts/2018/6/how-to-memorize-all-50-states-their-locations-and-their-capitals-in-one-hour

This is exactly what I have been looking for! It says the website has expired. Do you have an explanation of what picture to draw in each state? I used this years ago with my students, and it was very effective.

This is hilarious. I see Texas is Christian, Michigan is an oven mitt, California is full of Missions, and Kansas is just… trash. lol. Are there any other interesting connections you want to point out? I’m curious what Alaska means. And the Deep South.

Maybe they thought Corpus Christi was the capital of Texas. Kansas is a toe peeking out for Topeka. Nebraska Above is Lincoln, S. Dakota above is eyes peering for Pierre. Honey for Honolulu. Arkansas, the Ark is on a “Little Rock”.

Nice!

There’s also a catchy song by the Animaniacs (US cartoon show) that lists all 50 states and their capitals: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MSvJ9SN8THE

There are a few geographical mistakes, but overall the catchiness of the song should help you. The Animaniacs also had a version for the US Presidents.
