Welcome to Mythos and Maps!
Build worlds, not just stories.
Step through the portal into imagination. This 8-week project guides your learner through the art of world-building - designing maps, inventing creatures, creating cultures, and crafting stories that bring it all to life.
About this Project
Mythos and Maps invites children to think like storytellers, artists, and explorers. Over eight weeks, your learner will imagine an entire fantasy world from the ground up - shaping its landscapes, life, systems, and stories.
Along the way, they’ll develop creative writing, geography, and design skills while exploring how world-building can spark curiosity and big-picture thinking.
This project is designed to align with Upper Key Stage 2 learning aims and to be flexible and neuro-affirming, supporting children who thrive on imaginative, hands-on learning.
What Your Learner Will Do
Over the 8 weeks, your learner will:
Step through the “portal” into a world of their own imagination.
Create detailed maps of lands, biomes, and hidden places.
Invent creatures, cultures, and communities that bring the world to life.
Design systems that keep their world running - trade, communication, rules, or magic.
Develop challenges and conflicts that make their stories interesting.
Map out a story journey through their world.
Reflect, celebrate, and showcase their finished creation.
Whether your child loves fantasy, storytelling, gaming, or creative design, Mythos and Maps gives them the tools to dream big and build something extraordinary.
