Rome Map for Kids and Families
  • I found this special map of Rome in Italian and discovered that an English version existed; it is just hard to find at Roman newsstands, so I had some shipped to me.

  • The pleasingly colored folding map shows the whole city with sights that will interest kids that are color-coded, numbered and referenced to the informative back side. Quality paper unfolds to 18.5" x 28" It highlights monuments of interest, mysterious sights, parks, tours, shows, museums, as well as useful and emergency numbers. Callouts have interesting facts.

  • The street map is not detailed enough for turn by turn navigation but it will help children and their families find things of interest in any part of the city where they find themselves.

Discover the secrets of Florence. A slow stroll through the heart of Florence's historic center discovering curious facts, strange legends, anecdotes, and popular beliefs that have surrounded this city since medieval times. This collection of short anecdotes, organized for a stroll through the streets of Florence, gives fascinating interest to sights you would otherwise overlook. Many are famous in Florentine folk lore and the author points out how they have given rise to expressions in common use that otherwise are quite mysterious. Learn about the devil horse that led to a miracle depicted in a fresco in the Piazza del Duomo. Why are onions featured on the lanterns of Palazzo Strozzi? How did one of the great families get named after urine? What are the tiny windows that many of the old palaces feature? Find the memorial bust to a common vegetable seller who left an uncommon legacy. Why did the condemned scientist turn the priest to stone? Observe the tricky gift from Pisa to Florence. What carving on the face of the Duomo forever reminded a baker of being a cuckold? Why did the painter ruin his own work in the Cloister of the Vows? What did mothers do at the Wheel of the Innocents?  Learn the amazing story of the bride who was thought to be dead. Find the marker for the spot and the circumstances for the bare-bottom punishment. There are 56 little stories, many illustrated with photos of the actual spot. There are also four maps keyed to the stories.

Guide to Secret Rome

During my last trip to Rome, we visited more "secret" sights than renown ones; our family really enjoyed seeking them out and discovering uncrowded and really interesting spots throughout the city.

Secret Rome

by Ginevra Lovatelli

Organized by areas of Rome, this little guide book is easily keyed to any area you may be visiting within and outside the city. Finding these "minor" sights of Rome (many of which would be national monuments anywhere else) will add some excitement to your touring. 

Discover strange monuments, legends come to life, and beautiful sights that few tourists visit. Interleave some secret sights into your Rome visit and you will find places that are much more approachable and often more interesting than the top ten.

Souvenir Cards of Italy

These souvenir cards are such a great enhancement to your travel or dreams of Italy. Keep them around before travel to flip through the 54 different color photos in each deck to learn about all the different sights. Children especially benefit because the photos build familiarity with the sights you may see when you travel. If children are unfamiliar with something, they tend not to appreciate it resulting in boredom, whining -- I've experienced it all!

Let the children choose the cards that represent places they might want to visit to help build your itinerary. The names on the cards are in Italian so it will also help build Italian vocabulary.

The cards are great to bring along on your trip, too. Even the youngest can match photos on the cards to the sights. Cards could also help in navigating. The signs in Italy don't say "Coliseum" they say "Colosseo" and that's what you'll have on your cards! Also, a deck of cards is always a handy pastime. Then, home again, your cards are great for reliving memories.

We have decks for Rome, Naples, Venice, Sorrento and Tuscany & Florence. Collect them all!

The cards are traditional poker cards with 54 cards in the deck.

  • Minimum total product order is $10.
