View On Amazon

This cotton pillowcase features a map of the world, plus pictures and facts about landmarks and creatures found in various regions, allowing the user to learn about geography through creative activity.  

The color from the ten included fabric markers will wash out in warm water, so your 10-year-old can color the map repeatedly and get creative by adding her own notes and original drawings.

Our tester deemed this most suitable for older kids and tweens because the coloring requires a steady hand. She noted that the double-tip design made it easy to doodle, and the ink washed out easily. She advises caution with the blunt points, as they tended to bleed through to the other side of the pillowcase.
