This is a fun thing to do with kids. Enter your town and you get an interactive globe where you can select from a drop-down a time period and learn what was happening on earth and where your town was as the continents were shifting around. Each time period has information about life on earth and major changes during that time. You can use the arrow keys to move forward and backward in time.
Fun interactive map lets you see where your town was throughout earth history

Enjoyed it a lot, thanks for posting. We have a lot of limestone, sandstone and shale in our are as well as granite, and it is fun to try to relate that with times of upheaval and fall with seaway formation.
