In this introduction to maps, children are guided by a friendly bear named Buddy to think about the very idea of what a map is&;a drawing that shows where things are&;and then learn to use symbols, work with cardinal directions, and make the globe-map connection in a variety of fun, colorful, and eye-opening activities. Hand-drawn room and neighborhood maps, as well as treasure maps, prepare kids for understanding more formal maps of states and countries.
