World ScrunchMap
Traditional maps spend most of their lives folded up in a drawer because nobody wants to wrestle with creases, tears, or impossible refolding instructions. World ScrunchMap solves that problem with a durable, water-resistant map designed to be handled, packed, crumpled, and reused again and again.
Printed on a lightweight, tear-resistant material, this 36" x 24" world map can be scrunched into a ball, tucked into its drawstring pouch, and pulled out whenever curiosity strikes. No careful folding required.
Bright colors and clear labeling make it easy for your child to explore countries, continents, oceans, and major geographic features. Whether he's tracing an explorer's route, locating countries in current events, or planning a dream vacation, the map encourages hands-on interaction rather than passive observation.
Because it's built for travel, World ScrunchMap is just as useful on the road as it is at home. Keep it in a backpack, glove compartment, or travel bag for quick geography lessons wherever your adventures take you.
Unlike a wall map that becomes part of the background, World ScrunchMap invites regular use. The more your child handles it, studies it, and refers back to it, the more familiar the world becomes. It's geography that's ready to travel wherever learning happens.
How to Use World ScrunchMap
- Keep the map somewhere easy to grab and pull it out at least once a week. Because it is designed to be handled, packed, and reused, you can use it at the kitchen table, in the car, on vacation, or wherever learning happens that day.
- Connect the map to subjects you're already studying. Locate countries from history lessons, trace the routes of explorers, follow missionary journeys, identify places mentioned in current events, or find the countries discussed in books you're reading together.
- Use the map to build geographic awareness in everyday life. Look up places mentioned in the news, find countries connected to your family's heritage, trace upcoming travel destinations, or locate the origins of foods, inventions, and cultural traditions.
- Turn review into a quick game by asking simple geography challenges: "Can you find a country that starts with B?" or "Which continent is the largest?" Short activities like these help build familiarity without feeling like formal schoolwork.
- When you're finished, simply scrunch the map into its pouch and save it for the next adventure. No careful folding required.
The more often your child handles the map, the more familiar the world becomes. What begins as a simple reference tool gradually becomes a mental picture of countries, continents, and connections, making geography easier to understand.

review by Mama Bean AZ
”The boys love that it looks like an “adult” map and we love that we don’t have to worry about them destroying the “nice” maps. It scrunches so nicely into its cute little carry case, which hangs on a hook from our school cart.”

review by So Every Day
”It’s pretty much exactly what it sounds like. It’s made of some sort scrunchable paper-like material and it can be balled up and shoved inside a little bag that comes with it.”

Teacher and Student Favorite!
R. M.
This has got to be one of my favorite tools in the schoolroom. Easy to take and use anywhere and the kids seem to have even more fun using it than other options. These maps also double as doll blankets ;)

Love this tool for geography and hands-on studying where a globe cannot go. Love that you don’t have to commit to a hanging pull-down wall map to have something that works for kids and educators interests (and now it’s not just the teacher’s pointer that can touch it either).

Fun map!
Heather C.
I bought this for my kindergartener, not only is it functional for learning, it is awesome because it is different. Something about not being a traditional paper map is very exciting to kids. Also, the scrunchable nature of the map makes geography more convenient, no taking time to figure out how to fold it up.

Perfect for hands-on learners!

This map is made up of a fabric-type material and is quite durable. It’s fun to be able to just scrunch it up, put it in the bag, and take it back out when needed again. My kids love it! This map is perfect for hands-on learners. It’s a great tool to have on the go too.

Wonderful map
Erika S.
This has been a great little map that we can pull out whenever we encounter a new location in our books. It's big enough to see details, but not big and awkward to store considering it scrunches into a small bag.

so fun

Our kiddos love that they can scrunch up their work! It's really detailed and the feel of it is so soft. They love it.
