Why Do We Use ‘Maps’ to Navigate the World?

Imagine you're in a big city and don't know where to go. A map is like a special picture that shows you all the streets, buildings, and places nearby. It helps you find your way just like a treasure map helps pirates find their treasures. Maps make it easy for people to travel from one place to another without getting lost.
