‘LET’S GO’ is an important phrase for helping children communicate.

The Map Game uses imagination to allow children to use their new vocabulary and ‘LET’S GO’ phrase while having fun exploring the map of an imaginary town. It is also an opportunity to continue modeling the phrase “let’s go” for the child.

Includes:

• There are three maps: one is pre-made, and two you can use to design your own town.
• Decide how big you would like your maps to be.
• Download maps and print them to size.
• For 'My Map," draw or print out photos and stick them on. It can be nice to use locations the child knows. This may help reduce anxiety about trips to these places. You can also make it fun by allowing the child to design their own map.
• Find or make pieces: You can either find small toy cars or figures or cut out and laminate the pieces below.
