Europe Control Map in a child's hands
The labeled control map for Europe, with the country names printed on it. A control map earns its place on a continent with this many names: the child lays out the puzzle map, places what they know, then goes to the printed sheet to settle the rest, and nobody has to be asked for the answer. The unlabeled map, the printed labels and the puzzle map are separate items, which is worth knowing before ordering one sheet. Laminated print.

Builds understanding of European countries, their names, and relative positions through visual reference.
Independent Learning
