Hearthstone's Really Big Maps.


I went to a crafts sale last month at Hearthstone School near Sperryville. I was surprised to see that a paved play area was covered with huge painted maps!


Sharing with Monday Murals.

    I wonder how long they will last with little shoes all over them...hopefully a generation will walk from Russia to America, and elsewhere! Fantastic!

    Thanks for the link, it looks like a wonderful school. The maps are great. We have them on a playground in our school district as well.

    Similar maps are painted on the playground at our neighborhood's elementary school, and I've also seen them elsewhere. A company called "Peaceful Playgrounds" sells a stencil for the maps -- $200. I agree that it's a fabulous idea and teaching tool.

    A map on the playground, very cool. Just think of the future adults who are avid travelers because they were inspired by that map.

    I love the maps painted on the play area. What a good way to help kids learn.
