Citizens of the World

Acrylic Globes from Maison 24

If you’ve done your geography homework, consider this your chance to shine:

1. What is the capital of Iceland?

2. Which continent is home to the Amazon River?

3. Where is Kathmandu?

Okay, time’s up. How do you think you did? Now, how do you think your four-year-old would do? Oh, if only you had bought her that globe, you both may have fared better.

The world is getting smaller by the day and the next generation will have to be up on their geography. With a beautiful acrylic globe from Maison 24, not only will your kids have fun learning but you will also be helping with the global AIDS crisis. Through December 1, Maison 24 is donating 10 percent of sales of the acrylic globes to Visual AIDS, which promotes AIDS education and prevention through the arts.

It’s never too early to raise a global do-gooder.
