I'm convinced that you can probably turn any subject to be learned into a game. Geography can be so much fun! Just having a map on your wall will lead to questions from your kids. In one of my classes in Indonesia I had an inflatable globe and we would spin it around while a child pointed to a random country. We would then pray for the people of that country, but you could go a step further and find library books, videos, and plenty of free information online to dive into learning about that country.
Shepherd Software has free online geography games! Check out the maps and learn the locations of countries, oceans, continents and more! They also have different levels of the games and summaries of various places.If you've got a child who is bored or struggling with geography she might really enjoy the visual and auditory stimulation these games provide!
