Asia Unit Study for Kids: A Hands-On Geography Homeschool Curriculum

I’m excited to announce that our newest continent study from the Global Explorers Club is now available! Our Asia unit study bundle includes 20 individual country unit studies spanning the Middle East, South Asia, Southeast Asia, and East Asia.

Our homeschool geography curriculum is packed with engaging stories, cultural activities, and hands-on learning experiences your whole family will enjoy! As the largest and most diverse continent on Earth, Asia offers an incredible range of cultures, landscapes, and traditions and I wanted our curriculum to reflect that richness.

In addition to the literature, mapwork, writing, cooking, music, and art activities you’ve come to love from the Global Explorers Club, our new unit study bundle also features exciting new additions and helpful upgrades, including:

Science Notebooking Activities

Each country study now includes a themed science notebooking activity. From plate tectonics in Turkey to buoyancy in the Dead Sea to the carbon cycle in Mongolia, students will explore real-world science through the lens of geography and culture.

Traditional Board Games

We’ve included more traditional games than ever before, many with printable game boards and instructions so you can start playing right away. Here’s just a sneak peek at what’s inside:

• Bagh Chal from Nepal
• Hasami Shogi from Japan
• Pong Hau K’i and Dou Shou Qi from China
• Jarmo from Mongolia
• Plus, many more!

Games are one of my favorite ways to connect children with other cultures. They help build critical thinking, math, and social skills – and best of all, they’re fun! I hope the games we’ve included in our Asia country unit studies bring plenty of joy and laughter to your learning adventures.

Now Available in Printable PDF and Digital Formats

Each country unit is now available in printable PDF format and a digital curriculum planning tool. Plus, all materials are organized by country, making it easier than ever to print-and-go or plan your lessons digitally.

Literature-Based & Family-Friendly

Like all of our unit studies, our Asia continent study is built around rich, diverse stories. Whether you’re reading Malala’s Magic Pencil or Snow in Jerusalem with younger learners, or diving into What Elephants Know or The Rainbow Troops with older students, each story opens the door to new perspectives and helps foster empathy, understanding, and global awareness.

Designed for grades 1–6, our geography homeschool curriculum is flexible enough to adapt across ages, making it ideal for family-style homeschooling, co-ops, or classrooms. You’ll also find:

• Sentence strategy activities inspired by Judith C. Hochman’s The Writing Revolution method
• Interactive mapwork and geography notebooking activities
• Hands-on art, crafts, and music appreciation
• Global cooking lessons
• And much, much more!
