Printable Passport for Kids

You don’t need a plane ticket to travel the world in your homeschool. This printable passport for kids lets kids record each country they learn about and add a passport stamp, just like real travelers.

For more ideas, see my list of travel books for kids.

This 3-page printable includes a passport cover and ID page, a country travel page and a page of 20 passport stamps. Kids practice map skills, research and writing as they fill in a page for each country.

Who Is This Printable Passport For?

This passport is for kids who are learning about countries around the world.

• Homeschool families doing a geography or around the world unit
• Classrooms hosting a countries fair or culture day
• Kids getting ready for a real trip who want to learn about where they’re going

Why Should Kids Learn About Other Countries?

Learning about other countries helps kids understand that people around the world live, eat, dress and celebrate in different ways.

It also builds real geography skills. Kids find countries on a map, learn which continent they’re on and notice neighboring countries and oceans. Keeping a passport gives them a record of everywhere they’ve “visited” and something to look back on.

Learning About Russia With Ready-to-Read

We used the “Living In…” series from Ready-to-Read to learn about Russia. These leveled readers show what a child’s day is like in another country, including the food they eat, the capital city and big landmarks.

We learned that Russia is the biggest country in the world and spans 11 time zones. Siberia makes up about three-quarters of Russia’s land. The book also covered Peter the Great and what he did for Russia, with comprehension questions at the end.

The books are leveled, so you can match them to your child’s reading level. The ones we had were levels 2 and 3, and the level 3 books had longer sentences and more detail.

What Is Included in the Printable Passport for Kids?

The printable includes three pages that fold and cut into a small passport book.

Passport Cover and ID Page

The top half is a blue World Traveler passport cover. The bottom half has a spot to glue a photo, lines for given name, surname, age, place of birth, and date issued, plus a world map and a signature line.

Country Travel Page

For each country, kids write where they went on a world map, add the date of travel, and glue a stamp in the stamp box. They also draw the country’s flag, write something interesting they learned, and draw a picture of something they saw. Print one of these pages for every country you study.

Passport Stamps

This page has 20 colorful stamps to cut out, including Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, Egypt, France, Japan, Mexico and the USA. Each stamp shows a symbol or landmark, like the Eiffel Tower for France and the pyramids for Egypt.
