World Maps are so exciting to explore. The best way to engage a student learning about the world, is to ask them to label it. The Mini Peel & Play World Map Set on Educents provides students all the materials they need to explore and label a world map. Better yet, the map is small enough to stick onto the car window while you're traveling. It's also easy to move the map from room to room in your house - the map has a safe adhesive that allows students to stick the map to a surface over and over again.

Activity Ideas
Looking for ways to make the Mini Peel & Play World Map interactive? Use these activities: Label the oceans - use the labels to point out oceans around the globe. Ask your student to match the sticker with its continent. What does your student see in that continent? What is the climate there? Is that continent above or below the equator? After your student has placed all the sticker labels on the globe, s/he can refer to the map while responding to these writing prompts:- Name all of the oceans in the world.
- Locate your home on the map. If you wanted to visit Australia, which direction would you need to travel?
- How would you travel to Europe - by foot, by boat, or by plane?
- Which direction does a ship need to sail to travel from South America to Africa?
