For the lower elementary child, maps are a way of concretizing all the histories they are hearing. This puzzles will encourage your child to recognize Jesus as a historic person living in a historic place. The pieces of the wall and towers are removable as are the significant buildings and landforms. Major roadways and water forms are indicated.
This map comes with its own cloth control map.
The child can make their own map by tracing the puzzle pieces - just like the Montessori puzzle maps.
THIS MATERIAL COMES TO YOU UNPAINTED AND UNHEMMED. (See NOTE below.)
There are very small pieces which could be a CHOKING HAZARD.

This is a godsend for groups with small atria who really want to show the City of Jerusalem but just do not have the space. And it comes with a cloth control map - soooo nice!!

So glad I went ahead and purchased this. I've been waffling about making one for our homeschool for a few years, and I'm glad I didn't attempt it. This one is just right and the painting/finishing wasn't too much work for a busy mom of many. Thank you for providing this!
