Learning about our world is fun with this board book. Over 70 magnetic tiles can be positioned on the pages over and over again to give plenty of practice. It provides facts and information about the seven continents of the world, with lively maps of North America, South America, Europe, Africa, Asia, Oceania and Antarctica. The geographical information and maps in this magnetic board book provide a fun and educational way to help children learn about the seven continents of the world and the animals and plants that live there. The book begins by asking 'What is a continent?' and then contains beautifully illustrated maps showing the key features of life on those continents. For example, North America is home to the world's biggest deer, the Amazon rainforests of South America contain the greatest variety of wildlife anywhere in the world, and animals such as lions and cheetahs thrive on the warmest continent, Africa. The book comes with a tray that can be opened and pulled apart to create a set of over 70 magnets, each showing animals and plants of the world. The pages contain grey squares to show where the magnets can go, and the magnets can be removed and reused.
When finished, a grown-up can fill in an official certificate to show that the book has been completed successfully!
