Make a map

Introduction: Detailed maps require time and skill to produce. In this challenge you will have a go at creating a small map of somewhere like your house, garden or a local park.

Instructions: Creating a simple map:
1. First draw out the outline of the area you are mapping
on to a sheet of paper. For a room in your house, an
outline of the room shape; for a garden the shape of
the grass, path etc
2. Separately draw any objects that are in that space,
colour them in and cut them out. For a room cut out
the chairs, table, TV or for a garden flower beds, shed,
BBQ, toys etc
3. The colours you use can help represent items. For
instance all chairs in brown, all tables in grey and add a
key showing this.
4. You can Draw big features like houses and ponds
straight onto your map. Very small features could be
represented by a symbol and added to your key.
5. Move around your cut out objects on the map outline
you created in stage 1 and stick once they are in the
correct position.
