Giant Floor Map
Geography comes alive with our Giant Floor Map program. Our geographers will take students on a fun-filled excursion full of possibilities.
The Giant Floor Map is not only a colorful puzzle that kids love to assemble – it’s also a game board where they can play GeoTwister, Musical States, and Alphabet Geography.
Along the way, students learn how geography relates to scientific subjects such as climate change, conservation and environmental management.
