This project is fun to pair with the book "Me on the Map "

Kids Geography Project:

First, gather your materials. You will need construction paper of different colors, crayons or markers, scissors, and glue. We traced different mixing bowls to create the different sized, concentric circles. As the circles get bigger, their pictures show bigger geographic areas.

The circles are labeled with the following titles (English and then Spanish):

Each circle will be labelled, and then decorated with a representative image.

For "my house," have them write their address, their city for "my city," etc until they reach "Earth" for their planet. Because I was doing this project with 4, 6, and 7 year olds, I printed pictures of our state, country, and continent from the internet ( Tip: when you want only an outline of a country, type in " France map coloring page"). They drew their house, a scene from our city, and we used a paper plate for the final circle. I showed the kids pictures of the world to come up with "my planet." Finally, we punched holes in the top and used binder rings (from an office supply store) to assemble the project. My kids presented their projects by reading the titles, and explaining the details to us.
