Series
Destination World
4 episodes
Four continent flyovers from National Geographic Kids, each under three minutes: Africa, Asia, Australia, and South America. The clips work as aerial surveys rather than country studies. Africa's deserts, savannas, and rainforests come in sequence; Asia ranges from high mountains to dense cities; Australia does double duty as a country and a continent; South America brings the Andes, Amazon, and rainforest. Note that the set is partial, since North America, Europe, and Antarctica are not in the catalog. Best used as a geography warm-up before students map physical features or compare two continents, not as complete coverage of the seven.
