We Have a Map!

We explored our trails following a map that we've made, naming spots along the way. The children grasped the concept of "where am I now?" and were eager to find the spot on the map that corresponded to our place on the trail. There was a long discussion about the "singing tree" and lots of listening. The children are familiar with and enjoy exploring their favorite spaces, but the maps helped us to move along the trail!
Until Next Time,
