When I was little, my parents played a game with us every night. At least I thought it was a game...it was a geography lesson. We would spin the globe, close our eyes and put our our finger. Wherever our finger landed was the country we had to look up in the Encyclopedia and learn about that night.

I was very small when we started doing this, so needless to say, I learned the southern hemisphere before anything above the equator.
