Description

A fun team relay where Squirrels will apply their navigation skills to find checkpoints around the area! ?

Resources

- Printed copies of a simple map of the hall or outside area with checkpoints marked.
- Materials for tasks at each checkpoint (different packs of stickers)
- Stopwatches for timing the teams.

Instructions

1. Set up several checkpoints around a field or safe area; each checkpoint should have a pack of stickers (different stickers per checkpoint).
2. Divide the Squirrels into teams of 3-4 and give each team a map marking where the checkpoints are located.
3. At each checkpoint, Squirrels will have to collect a sticker each, and complete a task before moving on to the next one. For example:
- At Checkpoint 1, identify a natural feature from their map.
- At Checkpoint 2, answer a question about map symbols.
- At Checkpoint 3, find an item using compass directions.
4. Teams will race to complete all the checkpoints, timing them to add a fun competitive element.
5. Celebrate all teams at the end, possibly with prizes for the fastest team and for all groups’ efforts!
