While we were hiking Jordan and I played Mr Tortoise (me) and Mr Hare (Jordan, 7 years old).
We made a list of what Mr Tortoise likes to do while hiking. What would you add to this list?
When Mr Tortoise Goes Hiking
· He always drinks plenty of water before starting out
· He eats often – even if he doesn’t feel like it – for more energy
· He carries water and drinks a lot of it
· If it’s hot, he hikes early or late in the day
· He dresses appropriately and always uses sun block and wears sunglasses
· He only carries what he needs – the less weight, the more fun!
· He knows the way and tells someone where he’s going and when he’ll be back
· He leaves everything – plants, animals and trails – like he found them
· He picks up litter so other people can enjoy their hike more
· He always thinks positive – what fun thing to see or do is just up ahead? – and has fun!
