Do you know the song "Fifty Nifty United States"? (by Ray Charles, I believe) I sang it in junior high choir, and the fantastic bit is that a chunk of the song is singing the states in alphabetical order. It doesn't do anything about the capitals, but maybe it will help in learning them.
Another tidbit from junior high: We had Apple IIe computers (NEW!), and for extra credit, you could write a computer program. I did a states/capitals game. The final product was basic (i.e.--lame), and it totally turned me off programming because it took so long to write.
