Keywords:topographic model, hill, incised valley, glued foam core board, resin, sweets

Topographic-model is a useful tool to enjoy craft work and understand geomorphology. Simplified and representative models of hill and incised valley were proposed in children-targeted sessions by university and scientific society. We introduce previous sessions and display two types of topographic models.
