I always had to hold the Delorme Gazeteer or later, run the Garmin, when we went on road trips, from the time I was seven or eight years old. I suspect that early exposure to maps like that is the reason I have to have GPS navigation systems stay north-oriented, rather than rotating with the vehicle's heading. This was before in-car entertainment systems also, I suppose, so there wasn't much to do other than look out the window, so you'd pick up a lot of the landscape and landmarks as well.
