The Geography Song is an introduction to geography and learning how to read a map for kids. This basic geography video is great for learning the continents and the oceans and location of the east hemisphere and west hemisphere and the north and south poles and equator. If you are teaching geography to elementary students or teaching the countries of the world be sure to check out this song by Scratch Garden! The lyrics are just below the video.
Lyrics
If you’re looking at a globe or a map of the world
And if you wanna understand it you gotta know these:
Hemispheres, North & South Poles, Equator Oceans, Continents, and lots and lots of Countries!
The real world is round, and shaped like a sphere
And divided into East and West Hemispheres The real world is round, and shaped like
a sphere And divided into East and West Hemispheres
On the top and the bottom, where it’s always cold
Are two points we call the North and South Poles
On the top and the bottom, where it’s always cold
Are two points we call the North and South Poles
And in between the poles, yes right in the center
Is an imaginary line we call the Equator! In between the poles, yes right in the
center Is an imaginary line we call the Equator!
If you’re looking at a globe or a map of the world
And if you wanna understand it you gotta know these:
Hemispheres, North & South Poles, Equator Oceans, Continents, and lots and lots of Countries!
The world is mostly water, I’ll say it again: The world is mostly water, filled with Oceans!
Pacific Ocean, Atlantic Ocean Arctic Ocean, Indian Ocean
and the Southern Ocean
But there is also land so please don’t forget It’s divided into seven Continents:
North & South America, Europe & Africa Asia, Australia, and Antarctica
In the continents it’s divided again Into many different countries also called nations
Now how many countries? – have you ever wondered?
Count them all up its almost two hundred!
If you’re looking at a globe or a map of the world
And if you wanna understand it you gotta know these:
Hemispheres, North & South Poles, Equator Oceans, Continents, and lots and lots of Countries!
