This Helping Nature activity can be completed as part of Families Wild Challenge.

Estimated time: 1 week Season: All year Skill level: Not too tricky

Instructions

Print out our ‘count your wild miles’ sheet. Or make a tally chart with names on the left and space to tally up your total on the right. Stick your sheet or tally chart it to the fridge.

When anyone in your family walks, runs, cycles or scoots a route they would normally do in the car, use Google Maps to find out how far it is.
