Australia Control Map in a child's hands
The labeled control map for the Australia puzzle map, printed in English only. Which one you need depends on the age of your puzzle map, because the catalogue carries a second Australia control map that the maker marks for puzzle maps produced before 2022, and this is the other one. The unlabeled version and the printed labels are separate items, and the labels for this generation are marked for control maps produced in 2023 and later. Laminated print.

Children learn to identify and name all Australian states and territories while developing spatial awareness of this unique continent-nation.
