Egypt Is In Africa

My children and I have been studying ancient times since August. We started with creation and have systematically moved forward through the history of civilization. We have spent a considerable time on Egypt. Studying the different periods of Egyptian civilizations and locating different civilizations on various maps. We have been doing this all year long so imagine my surprise when we got in the car Sunday after church and my son who was looking at a map in the back of his bible excitedly tells me, "Mom, did you know Egypt is in Africa?"

Well, I suppose the point is that he now knows where Egypt is and not so much how he learned it but still!
