Find and Draw India's Major Rivers Worksheet for Kids

How to use this worksheet

Start by reading through the list of ten rivers together, sounding out any unfamiliar names like Godavari or Brahmaputra. Look at the blank outline map and help your child locate the rough starting point for one river before drawing its path with a pencil. Work through the list one river at a time, checking the reference list after each one to keep track of which are done. Once all ten rivers are drawn, go back and label each with its name near the line.
