Happy Map Work

Work with maps can be done in many different ways.  Geography doesn't mean you have to look at a printed picture trying to point out different countries, cities and rivers (and trying to remember them).
My experience is that facts stick in our mind far better when they are connected to play, creativity and fun.
It works! :-)
