Thanks to Dr. Henk Scholten for sharing some great spatial examples in his plenary address to the ESRI Education Users Conference. One that caught my eye was a Dutch ad for coffee.

You can examine some of his work at EduGIS (www.edugis.nl) and GeoDan (www.gedan.com).
He shared some great perspectives on how GIS affects the development of spatial thinking.
