We all live on our planet, called “Earth”. The earth, or maybe better, our world, consists for the most part of water. These are the great oceans and different seas. The rest where we live is called “land”. The earth is divided into very large pieces of land that we call a “continent” or “mainland”. But, how many continents are there and what are they? And what do they consist of?
How many continents are there and what are the continents?
The earth consists of 7 continents. The next question is “what are the seven continents?”. Well, these seven mainlands all have their own name, as you can see in the world map / continents map below. When you move over a continent, you’ll see some information about it. When you click on it, you’ll go the that mainland page with more information about the regions, states and/or countries the mainland consists of. For every continent we’ll also offer some coloring pages and learning tools for you. Just choose the continent and find out more about it.

World learning tools
A learning tool cannot be missed when you have to learn about the world geography. You can of course buy a world globe, but online maps are easier nowadays. So below you’ll find a printable learning tool when you have to learn about the different mainlands our Earth consists of. Just fill in the name of the continent on one of the seven lines, but first download and print the world map :).
Coloring pages of the world
Besides learning, it’s also great to color in a great world coloring page. Below we offer you some of these earth coloring pages with the World Map continents.
