Varitra Foundation

What helps us reach a place without asking someone? 🤔

In a recent library session at Varitra library, when children walked into their library, they didn’t just see bookshelves, they explored the art of observing

Gathering in small groups, our children created their own library maps 🗺️🗺️

One map highlighted the reading corner, other map marked a “book hospital,” and some maps focused on the library entrance as the beginning of their journey with books.

A few children even mapped their path from the classroom to the library.

Map-making became a way for children to understand, experience, and take ownership of their learning space.

💡Fun fact : Everyone’s map looks a little different because we all notice and remember places in our own way. Geographers call these “mental maps.”
