So yesterday we are out geo caching but before we set off i presented my kids with a list of waymarks.

While out on the hunt rather than asking how far mom how far mom how far mom how far mom how far mom how far mom how far mom they actually looked for things that fitted the list.

When found they diligently wrote the details , co - ords and took photos.

We think they found three different types and they will be logging them this week.

I have to say it was a very enjoyable excercise and with a few changes (the list needs to be physically smaller) all three want to find more waymarks when we go out, and here is the rub even when we are not caching they want to look out for them.

For anyone who has endured bored children when out walking or shopping or just driving somewhere it seems to be another option.

Just thought id share.
