Did I mention we were getting ready for some virtual travel!!! Because we are! And along with a means of transport all good travelers need a map, so here is ours…
- old magazines – food magazines don’t have a lot blue pages!
- white glue
- crayons
- food-coloring
- We began by shredding up magazine pages – just the blue, there is a lot of ocean on our planet.
- Then with watered down white glue we painted a big peace of card and we got stuck in. Literally!!!
- And we had a world ocean.
- We traced a continent for each of the se7en.
- Then we had a crayon frenzy.
- Followed by painting with food coloring.
- And lastly a snip and a stick and our map is good to go – literally!

anyways, I love love this project! We are going to have to try this at our house, I love the look of collage. Where did you find the continent shapes?

Hi J, Sorry about the commenting dilemma!!! We used printer paper (which is thin enough to see through) and traced the continents off the map we use for school (from geography songs). Hope that helps! Thanks for persevering with commenting! Have a great week!!!
