Australia Map


This is my map of Australia aimed at children aged 3-6. Instead of labelling every picture of animals, landmarks, etc, i decided to leave them blank which would encourage the child to ask questions resulting in quality learning conversations between child and parent/guardian/teacher. Same with the fact bubbles - some of the words children this age could read whereas some would be a bit hard and require assistance reading. The images are cartoon style which would appeal to youngsters, as do the bright colours.
