The best state we have studied so far was Hawaii. One struggle I have had with the 50 State Study is that some states have very little exciting, interesting aspects. But, Hawaii has so much of its own culture, that we had a lot of fun studying it.
I should have taken some pictures at the time, but we had some leis in our costume center, so the girls wore them while we did this craft. We also cut one of the plastic flowers off and glued it on as the state flower (hibiscus). We even practiced hula dancing:

We went to Hawaii on our honeymoon, so I showed the girls the scrapbook I made of that trip.
