1. Art and decoration

A world wall map can add a real touch of elegance and charm to a room. An old-style world map, or world map in a wooden frame, adds an air of class.

Alternatively for a more modern look, a canvas world map is a great alternative to a framed picture or photo. Bright colors and a canvas fabric make this world map bring a room to life. Canvases are gaining popularity for use in home decor, and a world map on canvas gives it a modern, modern look.

2. A fantastic reference guide

Word wall maps are a great reference tool. When a country is in the news, do we always know exactly where it is or what countries it borders? A world map posted on the wall means that whatever a country or city is in the news, or referenced, you can check exactly where it is.

Some high-quality world maps also have a panel of country flags along the base of the map. Again, this is a great reference tool and learning aid.

3. A great learning resource

Maps help children learn about the world in which they live. The world is a big place, so seeing the country they live in and how small it is on the map compared to other countries can help them understand how big the world really is. Geographic knowledge can be learned from a young age, and there is always something new to learn no matter how old you are. A world map will provide not only the countries, but also the capital cities and often the approximate size of the population.
