Me On The Map

I recently found this neat idea on another blog, Counting Coconuts.  It is called Me On The Map, and it helps children to visualize where they live on this great planet of ours.  

It is a hard concept for little children to grasp with names of streets, cities, countries, and watching family members climb into planes destined for faraway places that must be up in the clouds somewhere; why else would they have to fly in a plane, right?  Just drive there like we do when we go places!

Me On The Map

On the front on each circle is a picture of where we live, each one zooming in to our actual place on the earth.  On the back of each circle are a few facts.

I had fun making this!  I LOVE my laminator.
