.Things I'm Crushing...OUR WORLD.

I remember as a child that we always had a world globe sitting on top of our TV.  It wasn't just a decoration...the globe was pretty battered and worn.  We would play games with it all the time - spin it as fast as we could and stop our fingers on a country.  The last I remember, it was very faded, the paper was lifting and edges were torn.  I'm thinking it was tossed away, but I wish we still had it.  I've been thinking about that globe lately and how I want a globe in our home - one that can be played with so that the children have an opportunity to explore the world and see how countries and oceans make it up.  Then I started spotting globes, maps and some great creations on Pinterest and I'm loving them - wouldn't the world map make a great theme for decorating a boy's bedroom?
 
 
 
 
 
What an amazing world we have!

World themed stuff is awesome :D I want a really big map of the world on my wall so I can mark where I've been and where I want to go.
