![]() Me On the Map by Joan Sweeney provides children with a lovely introduction to maps by following a young girls' journey from her room, to her street, all the way to her country on a map. They would even tote it around as part of their pretend play, heading off on imaginary adventures.īelow is a list of nine great books about maps and atlases that are perfect for introducing your children to the great big world of maps. The children loved pouring over its pages, looking at the patterns of lines and interesting symbols. I remember one year when I was teaching kindergarten, the most popular book on our class bookshelf was a good, old-fashioned street directory for our state. Of course, kids' natural curiosity about their place in the world, and the visual appeal of a well-drawn map, makes anytime a good time to explore these kinds of books together too! ![]() If you're planning a road trip or vacation, it's a great time to introduce your kids to maps and atlases. ![]()
