North america 

North America is a continent, the third largest in the world after Asia and Africa.  North America is located in the Northern Hemisphere, and most of it is also in the Western Hemisphere. The continent is bordered by several oceans: the Arctic Ocean to the north, the Pacific to the south and west and the Atlantic to the east. North America is also bordered by South America and the Caribbean Sea.  

One of the most surprising North American facts is that there are actually 23 countries on the continent.  These include Canada, Mexico, Greenland, Bermuda, and all of the Central America and Caribbean countries.  The most populous of these countries is the USA, the second most populous is Canada. 
​
Here are some links to some games for you to play and help you learn where the countries are:
