I want to give my middle schooler (8th grade) a good introduction to better reading maps so he can be a reliable navigator when we travel, father & son, to a new country where we're renting a car.

I usually take care of it myself when I solo travel, but I want to use this as an opportunity to help develop his skillset.

I greatly enjoyed the "map skills" part of my school years in the 1980s, but the workbooks I've found online tend to be aimed a elementary schoolers -- is there a good one for kids a little older? I've also seen college-level which seems like it might be overwhelming for him.

Does anyone have a good suggestion?
