Map Drawing Trial: South America



I decided to try my hand at map drawing before assigning it to the kids One of my goals is for us to draw decent world maps from memory as mentioned in The Core.  So I started with an easy continent and am pleased with the result. I know the boys will probably need to memorize a more basic outline first, with country names, but this is an encouraging, and free, resource. Later I'd love to be able to label some of the land features and a few cities. Download the PDF here (for free) from Globalmania.
