Instructions

Sinking Sand Grid sees the Beavers having to work as a team to find their way through a 5-by-5 grid (marked with masking tape). However, if they step on a square and the grown-up shouts GLUG, they need to return to the start and try to find a new path through remembering to avoid the sinking sand squares. The Beavers take it in turn to be the one to walk through the grid, while the others help direct.

Note - the grown-up can shout GLUG and add the sinking sand to their grid map, to ensure they do hit sinking sand numerous times.
