National Geographic Giant Traveling Maps invite children to explore geography in a very hands-on —or rather feet-on—way. The maps’ brightly-colored, smooth vinyl surfaces accurately illustrate and label the countries, bodies of water, mountains and cities. Students take part in activities including safaris, scavenger hunts, and competitive games. Along the way they gain knowledge of country locations, capital cities, population centers, and physical features, as well as learn important historical, wildlife and cultural characteristics. |
