What the child does
Puzzle Map in a child's hands
Designed for young learners, this wooden puzzle map of Spain brings children face-to-face with the country's autonomous communities through direct experience. Each color-coded region is a removable piece with a knob handle, freeing children to trace boundaries, learn regional names, and develop spatial awareness. The separate inset box for the Canary Islands teaches children about non-contiguous territories while building their understanding of Spain's complete geography.
