World Explorer

Countries of the world for kids

Pick a flag to visit a country. Learn how to say hello, the capital city, a favorite food, a famous place and a fun fact.

There are 193 countries here, from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe. Every country page shows the flag, the capital, the language people speak, a hello word to try, a food, a festival, an animal you might spot, a famous landmark and a true fun fact.
