Sting/Rope. Paracord works well if you have something that thick, it is bright and easy for girls to wrap around.
Instructions - printed and laminated

Instructions

Girls follow the compass instructions to create a shape (the trefoil). Start the girls off with the first peg and tie the rope onto it. Demonstrate how to step - heel to toe. This makes it more accurate. Once girls have completed the number of steps in the correct direction, girls put a peg in and wrap the rope around it to form the first line. Continue for all the instructions until the shape is completed.
