This is the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh.

"NAME THAT INDIAN CITY" GAME: Okay, I'm going to give every child viewing this blog a name. It is the name of an Indian city we will be visiting. (If you have kids that are not on the list, give each child one of the names below.) Write it down and hang it on your bedroom door by the doorknob. Look at it every day. Learn to spell it, and say it. Then watch this blog to see when Aunt Jacki is in the city with YOUR NAME. When I get to your city, google your city's name and find 1) a picture you like of your city, and 2) a picture of some kids in your city. Print them in black and white, color them with crayon, and hang them next to your name sign on your bedroom door.

(Clue: Our plane will fly into the one that is alphabetically second on Sunday, August 16.)

Print out a map and draw our route as we go. Put a sticker with your name by the town that's yours. Here are your Indian names:

Evelyn: Fatehpur Sikri

Sophia: Agra


Meridith: Varanasi


Jack: Mathura


Jonah: Delhi


Jake: Govhardan

This is the state of Uttar Pradesh in India.


This is where India is on the continent of Asia in the world map.
