Muppet cartography

A new Muppet Movie was released a few weeks ago. Here's a Sesame Street video about making maps featuring Ernie:




I remember when making maps was that simple. There was a great exercise in elementary school where we used a few drops of green, brown, yellow and white paint on blue paper. We folded the paper and unfolded it to make a Rorschach image... and that was our topographic map of our new imaginary land which we had to write a report about. It was one of the most fun learning experiences of my life.
