Night Time Navigation

This is an exciting activity that pupils will enjoy setting up and playing. Using string/rope weaved around a pathway to follow, pupils wear blindfolds and navigate their way around the route. This can be played in pairs with one guiding the other or as a team following each other or as individuals- maybe play against the clock? This activity requires concentration and will develop decision making and perseverance as well as being great fun.
