Move Together
First, put on your safari gear. Every great explorer has a hat for the weather, a bag to collect their items, a map, and something to look through like binoculars or a spyglass. If you’re up for the challenge, make a map of your home so you can mark where you found your items or create your own binoculars or a spyglass with toilet paper tubes!
