love of new places in your child this travel season. There are some wonderful products and media
available to help your kids get fired up about geography.
For the youngest ones, don"t miss the adorable HuggAPlanet, Earth (peacetoys. com, $19. 95). It"s
a soft, stuffed globe that"s covered with a colorful map of Earth. Kids will eye it like a treasure, toss it
like a ball and hug it like a friend.
For toddlers, the nifty puzzle My Town ABC (Great American Puzzle Factory, ages 3 and up; $12)
helps teach the concept of place as it illustrates the relationship of one location to another. Also worth
looking at for younger kids is the very cool CDROM Tonka Town (Atari, ages 36; $19. 99), which lets
children steer their favorite giant trucks down some adventurous paths.
For the older kids, probably nothing beats Handling the Actual Map (ages 815;$12. 95) that your
family"s using to get to your vacation destination. Whether you are traveling by car, bus, train or plane,
show the kids how to follow your route. Ask them to narrate the trip.
During your journey, consider weaving in a history lesson or two. Discuss how the famous explorers
used maps to chart their journeys. An excellent book is The Lewis & Clark Expedition (Williamson
Publishing, ages 912; $12. 95),which shows how the Corps of Discovery bravely pushed westward.
Love music and want to work it into your vacation in a meaningful, catchy way? Sample the delightful
video States and Capitals Songs (Educational Insights, ages 7 and up; $14. 95).

places they are visiting, from the official to the unusual.Meanwhile, hitech developments are creating new
ways for us to map the world.Here are two of our favorites:
Green Maps
Green Maps allows people to share with the world their knowledge of environmentally friendly places and attractions in the local areas.Users add information with a set of icons (图标) , making it easy to read any map, whatever the nationalities of those who produce it.At present there are over five hundred map
projects being developed in 54 countries.Green Maps" advertised idea is "think global, map local". It is a
wonderful way of gaining all sorts of information of a place, ranging from community gardens to good
places of birdwatching.
Green Maps is not specifically intended for travelers.Not all of its maps are online, so it may be
necessary for some users to communicate with the producers through the Green Maps website.
Map Mashups
Many people use online maps developed by Google, but not many know about the mashups of them.Working in a similar way to Green Maps, Map Mashups allows people to add icons of their own to
existing maps to express a certain topic.The mashups is so called because it combines all the knowledge
you could ever need.It ranges from the extremely useful, such as where all the World Heritage Sites are, to the most bizarre (古怪的), such as where America"s drunkest cities are.With the mashups added to the
basic Google Maps, a multilayered (多层的) map can be created.
