Xplorer is a fun family challenge aimed at primary a
nd pre-school children and
their parents, grandparents and guardians. It is an
outdoor navigational challenge
for the whole family to enjoy and involves a healthy
mix of physical activity and
decision making.
Using a simple map of the park the aim is to find the
points marked on the map
and write down the name of the secret animal and
learn an interesting fact or
answer a multiple choice question depending on th
e course.
No experience of map reading is necessary, and Xp
lorer is perfect for children
as they can run around in a safe and friendly enviro
nment and will have a great
adventure searching for the secret markers. Paren
ts are encouraged to join in the
fun and could even create family teams!
Explore the lake path, find the markers,
complete the challenge and have fun together.
