Day 295: Mapping Adventures

The children have become increasingly bored with walking around our neighborhood. I do not blame them, we have walked it almost everyday this summer. Yet, I am still not ready to move indoors. The weather is nice and I want to enjoy every minute of it.

In history we learned about Lewis and Clark. I decided the children should make maps of our neighborhood.

It was (and hopefully we will do more such adventures) a fun way to walk around the neighborhood. The children were absorbed with landmarks, the maps they drew and they began to notice "new" things  on their walk.

The walk was not as brisk as I would have wanted, but we were out a lot longer....I wonder if that makes the two walks even?

Happy Walking!
