What the child does

World in a child's hands

A pack of 50 outline maps of the world, printed on paper. An outline map shows only the contours of the land and is meant to be filled in by the child, which makes it a working sheet rather than a finished picture. This one shows the whole world, not a single continent. Fifty identical sheets allow the exercise to be repeated or shared among several children. It belongs to the geography and culture area, among the puzzle maps. Suitable for children from the age of three. Packaging 43 × 28 × 1 cm, weight 0.5 kg.

Fine Motor Development

Abstract Thinking

Helps children understand that maps represent real places, bridging concrete and abstract thought.

Cultural Preparation

Lays groundwork for cultural studies by providing visual framework of world geography.
