I was searching the web for old maps of Africa, when I came across all these cool resrouces for kids! Little Luc is currently obsessed with maps since Dad started travelling more and more, so I plan on doing something with these resources:-

1.   Owl & Mouse

This site provides interactive maps to help your kids learn about continents, countries, capitals, borders and other geographical aspects. The coolest feature is printable maps that fit on one page or spread out over 64 pages. Great!

2.   National Geographic’s Kids and the new Little Kids sites.

On the Kids’ site there is a map machine, aimed at older children and parents. It contains interactive maps with quizzes and fun facts. For the younger ones, clear pictures with captions you can read to them, with parent tips and resources. Certainly worth checking out.


I think these resources would be a great aid in preparing for a trip somewhere.
