Really clever idea. My youngest needed a bit of help with some of the riddles but the narrator gives gentle clues. We'll be back for the autumn one.

Thank you! We've added a little extra signpost so the tricky stop is easier to spot. See you on the next one.

Perfect for little legs. Short hops between stops and lots of things to touch and spot. She told everyone at nursery about the badge.

The best thing we've done in the holidays. Every stop had something for all three of them and nobody had a meltdown. Small miracle.

This made our day. Thank you for walking it with us, and well done to all the explorers.

Did it with an eight-year-old and a two-year-old and it somehow worked for both. The eight-year-old read the clues out to her brother. Proper family afternoon.
