Summary
"All aboard! Next stop ... the Midwest! We will be visiting the states of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Iowa and Missouri. On this trip, we will visit the Great Lakes, and cross the Interior Plains as they learn about the region's history, culture, industry and natural resources. We will spend some time with a dairy farmer in Wisconsin, and visit Chicago, the region's largest city. We are also scheduled to see two spectacular sculptures carved into the sides of mountains: Mount Rushmore and the Crazy Horse Memorial! After taking a hot air balloon ride across the farms of the Midwest, we will have some typical Midwestern food, including bratwurst and Swedish pancakes!"--Container cover insert
