Map art

1. Photocopy. Choose a map of your area (or download one from the Internet). At a copy shop, photocopy and enlarge a segment that includes your town. (Option: Play with the color on the copy machine—try a blue hue, a green hue, etc.)

2. Spray-mount. Adhere your enlarged map segment on foam-core board (corkboard works too).

3. Personalize. Label meaningful landmarks with strips of paper and pushpins.
