Read Around the World: Brazil Unit

This post may contain affiliate links.

This year we are going to be learning a lot about Brazil!  With the Summer Olympics being hosted in Brazil, I wanted to do some fun things to teach my kids all about it. Plus, my husband served a 2 year mission there, so it’s a country we are fond of in our home!  I have been working on a whole Read Around the World unit with 8 countries. The Brazil unit is the first one completed.  Just in time for the Olympics!

Read Around the World Brazil Unit for Kids

This unit will focus on books about Brazil. Find a few of these books online or at your library.  Along with the books are recipes, craft ideas, video links about Brazilian culture, questions about Brazil to answer, a Brazil flag to color and a Christ the Redeemer statue coloring page.  It has lots of fun stuff included and is a great, simple geography unit for your kids. These units are meant to be done once each week.

You can download the full unit for free now!

  1. Hi Karyn. I’ve signed up several times to be able to get to the Brazil unit specifically. I would like to be able to get to some of the others as well. Maybe I am doing something wrong. It thanks me for registering & tells me that I will receive an e-mail with a link. I haven’t received any e-mails. If you could please help, that would be wonderful 🙂
