About This Activity
Step into the Inklands, where creativity and discovery go hand in hand! In this hands-on STEAM experience, students become mapmakers as they mix their own inks, test different papers, and learn simple calligraphy techniques to design symbols and titles. Using geometry and mapmaking skills, they’ll build their own illustrated maps—complete with hidden clues revealed through science. Blending art, chemistry, and problem-solving, this adventure invites students to uncover the secrets of the Inklands while creating a map that tells a story of its own.
