I try to teach children basic navigation needs some ideas for navigating without a compass without a map?
Moon with anything, the signs of plants, etc. would be great. We are based in the United Kingdom
can take the children into groups and take different paths they also help with ratings. If you have groups of four, taking them to spend a square (4 points, 90deg angles). 3, a triangle (3 points, 120DEG angles) and each side of the form should have the same number of steps and you can use each child in each of the points of the form. Alternatively, you can give them a marker (a coin, for example) and see if they can return to the top without cheating (the smallest is about the best!). Good for a challenge! maybe try 5 or 6 sides and angles of work. You can also enter addresses ... North, SEW, etc. A good way to get outside, do something challenging and fun!
