Our nine-year-old thought she was too old for it. She was wrong and she knows it. Great mix of moving, looking and listening.

Lovely way to get round Bedford Purlieus. The story pulled both of mine along. One stop was a bit hard to find under the trees, but the map in the app sorted it.

I bring my group every Thursday now. The little challenge versions are perfect for the toddlers and the older ones love being the 'map keeper'.

Ollie is not an outdoors kid. He did the whole of The Sunshine Games and then asked if there was another one. That's a five from us.

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