CHALLENGE 1: 'THE MAZE CHALLENGE'.
Yesterday, my sister set the children the task of completing a maze that they had drawn out in the garden. Millie and Jacob had to work together to complete the maze and then drew out their own maze for my sister and brother in law to complete. It took a while, made them think and work as a team but was certainly a great activity to do out in the sun. You can draw it out in chalk in your back garden. Why not ask your parents if they'll do one for you and then you can have a go too! Don't forget to take lots of pictures.
