Follow That Map!

Maps play an important role in our daily lives and our new exhibit offers interactive experiences to increase map literacy. Develop an appreciation for maps as tools with which to explore, record and imagine the world. Play a game about longitude and latitude; map your own room; find your street on our giant community map; and create an original map of your own. Enjoy these activities and much more through May 2012.

Recommended age: 6 – 9 years
