Puzzle Map of the World
Price
The Puzzle Map of the World is a captivating Montessori material designed to introduce children to geography and global awareness, supporting child development in fine motor skills, spatial reasoning, and cultural understanding. Found in many Montessori schools, this material features a wooden map with removable pieces representing the continents, each uniquely shaped and often color-coded for easy recognition.
The Montessori directress presents the puzzle map of the world, demonstrating how to handle and fit the pieces into the puzzle board, naming each continent as it is placed. Children are encouraged to explore the puzzle map of the world independently, matching the pieces and learning the names and locations of continents.
This activity aligns with the Montessori philosophy by offering a hands-on, self-correcting tool that inspires curiosity about the world and lays the groundwork for advanced geography lessons. The Puzzle Map of the World helps children develop a sense of global connection and an early interest in cultural studies.
