New in Toponauts: one button that guides kids step by step through the Netherlands

20 June 2026

Toponauts has a nice new way to practise: Continue with the learning line. With that one button kids automatically continue with the part that fits best at that moment. So they're guided step by step through the topography of the Netherlands: first the provinces, then the capitals, then the big cities and after that the water.

For many kids that works pleasantly. They don't have to think first about what to choose, but can start right away. That gives calm and makes practising clearer.

A clear build-up, no fuss

Learning topography often works best in small, logical steps. So the learning line follows a clear order. Kids first build a solid base with the provinces. If that goes well, Toponauts automatically brings in the next step. So knowledge grows calmly onward to capitals, big cities and waters.

The nice thing is that the learning line connects to what a child already knows. If a child already has certain parts down, Toponauts builds on that and the next fitting part follows automatically. That makes practising not only clear but also motivating: kids notice they're really making progress.

Less choice stress, more focus

For parents and teachers it's recognisable: too much choice doesn't always help. Especially not for kids who just want to get started. If there are many options, that can create unrest or the feeling that you first have to make the "right" choice.

With Continue with the learning line that choice stress disappears. One click is enough to continue. That helps kids focus their attention on what really matters: practising, repeating and gaining little wins.

Kids can start right away
The order is logical and clear
The level matches what's already known
The next step is chosen automatically

Free practice stays possible

Of course free choice in Toponauts still exists. Whoever prefers to pick a part themselves can still practise freely. That's nice for kids who want to dig into something extra, or for teachers who want to review a specific theme in class.

So the new learning line doesn't replace that freedom, but adds something: a simple route for those who like to work step by step.

Great for home and the classroom

At home and at school especially, this way of working can bring a lot of calm. Parents have to explain less about where their child can best begin, and teachers know kids practise in a logical order.

With Continue with the learning line, practising topography becomes a bit easier: less searching, less doubting and getting to know the Netherlands more step by step.
