Nn is for Nicknames

Besides their official name, every state in the
 U.S.A. has a nickname, too.  For example,
Utah is called the Beehive State because
the early settlers of Utah were hard-working and
industrious like "busy bees".  So the beehive seemed
 like the perfect symbol of these pioneer virtues.

Here are a few more nicknames:

The Aloha State

The Constitution State

The Empire State

The Pelican State

The Sunflower State

The Sunshine State

Find and color each state on the map inside your
doodle book.

Oh yeah, and here are some clues to help you
match the nicknames to the correct state.

Happy coloring!
Love, Grandma
