One of my highlights of yesterday's Mapping USA online conference was osm.kids, a map using #OpenStreetMap that's made for #children! If you're zoomed in, it highlights things like playgrounds, fire stations, schools and ice cream shops.

When you zoom out, you see city and country names and flags so you can learn all about those!

It is so creative and I love it. osm.kids demonstrates so well that you can make maps with OSM that you cannot make with any other map tools out there.

@mvexel Is it easy to make maps? I would love to make a 'fixmystreet' layer for the whole world, also where there is no responsive government. It could make them more responsive if there are thousands of complaints of what needs fixing.

@rrustema sure can be done if the data is there. How easy it is depends on the result you want but I can sure give you some pointers. Honestly I would be surprised if someone hasn't either already created such a map or is working on it.
