    Used for a German lesson about the countries of Europe. It would be nice to see this in German too. It might also be nice to add a small legend to highlight some of the smaller countries in Europe such as Liechtenstein, Malta, Andorra, Gibraltar etc with a number or star.

    How can I use the Europe Map Outline?

    Our Blank Map of Europe is the perfect way to reinforce the names of countries in the classroom. It can be used as part of a geography lesson to introduce children to the countries in this continent, or to improve a child’s knowledge of European geography. 

    The Europe map outline can create a great memory testing game for your class, which will put their listening and memory skills to the best in an enjoyable and stress-free way. The template can be displayed in the classroom or at home as a helpful reminder of European geography.

    Children can colour in the blank and white Europe map outline to help them remember certain places, it is a brilliant cool-down task to help children sit back and relax while also learning. Easily downloadable and can be printed, ready to go.

    This blank map template also comes in an editable version, so you can customise the map to include questions for your class. 

    If you're teaching about Europe,  why not watch this Comparing Places CPD Video.

    If your class enjoyed the Europe map outline, why not test their knowledge of cities with our Map of Europe with Cities Activity Worksheet? A perfect addition to the map outline that can be displayed on the wall.

    How can parents use the outline?

    Our Europe Map Outline is a perfect activity to use at home. By printing off the outline, you can laminate your child's masterpiece and display it around the house. 

    It is great for improving your child's memory on European countries, as you can create a key with different colours that separate the seven regions in the continent. You, or your child, can decide on the colour key and do the activity together.

    What are the seven regions in Europe? 

    • Scandinavia (Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Denmark)
    • British Isles (the United Kingdom and Ireland)
    • West Europe (France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, and Monaco); 
    • South Europe (Portugal, Spain, Andorra, Italy, Malta, San Marino, and Vatican City); 
    • Central Europe (Germany, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Austria, Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Hungary); 
    • South East Europe (Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Montenegro, Albania, Macedonia, Romania, Bulgaria, Greece, and the European part of Turkey); 
    • East Europe (Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Belarus, Ukraine, Moldova)

    You could also try out our Continents and Countries Memory Game or European Landmarks Card Game for more fun geography for kids ideas.

    How many countries are there in Europe?

    There are over 50 countries in Europe, which include individual states. 

    The country with the largest population is Russia with a population of 146 million, while the country with the smallest population is Holy See with just 801 residents. 

    Using this map is a great way to extend your class's knowledge on the continent they live in! The great thing about our resources is that they're made by teachers for teachers. So you have the confidence that all of these maps are accurate and a great way for your class to learn about the world they live in.

    Or celebrate Europe Day in the classroom with this fun and interactive blank map of Europe.
