Well, I guess we have not given them much chance
. It all started when Grandma gave them a patch and told them it should go on their backpacks. Being only 5, they still think it is great.

The big world map would be my next choice. However, we have delayed it as we will be moving to Sweden soon and want to see what we have for wall space (and so we do not damage it when moving). The only problem is that both children have not always been to the same place, so we start to need lots of pins and preferrably in 2 colors. A minor inconvenience, but maybe the next points are where I should consider...

At least we have not gravitated towards patches/bumperstickers/useless souveniers^!
