So where would one find these songs, I have a 4th grader ;)

Edited to add: Never mind, there's quite a list if you do a search for 50 states in iTunes. I just don't know which ones of these you're talking about

I learned it in elementary school. I went to school here locally in southern california. Here's a link to the lyrics. I'm not sure if it was standard issue for all california schools or not.

Considering that I'm Canadian, I'd say 48/50 is a really good score.

I'm still kicking myself over missing Arkansas and Colorado, though. :blush:

Is this it? If so, how do I manage to save it to play on the iPod in the van for the kids?

To save it, right click on the link in your post and select save as, that should save the .wav file, then in iTunes, select File->Add File to Library, and point to the file you just saved.

Okay, this is just sad. I tried it again. In 4 minutes I came up with 49. Then I blanked for 2 minutes before I came up with Indiana. And then I discovered that I had doubled up on Alabama and missed Nebraska. Grrrrrr.

(Of course, I guess it's not really cheating since, in essence, we did learn and remember them when we were young. But still.)

Fifty nifty United States from thirteen original colonies! Shout 'em, spout 'em, tell all about 'em, one by one...
3 minutes exactly and also in alphabetical order.

Yes! The Fifty Nifty United States song. Ah, 6th grade did teach me something after all.

Fifty, nifty stars in the flag that billows so beautifully in the breeze...

That's how I did it.
