Timeline Of Explorers (Large Display) in a child's hands
The Timeline of Explorers, with the routes the famous voyages took and what each one found. Routes are the reason this timeline works on a wall: a line drawn across an ocean is an argument about how long something took and how little anyone knew before setting off, and a child who follows one with a finger asks better questions than a date can prompt. Large display, durable plastic. The other timelines are separate items.
