Chapter I - Mapping

Part I 

Hello children and welcome to the Greenwood!

Meet your forest guides, Jane and Sir Malcolm Cumberbun III.

Today we will be setting off an adventure to explore and map the wild world around us.

For this and future activities, we recommend that you have a special notebook dedicated to your Wildernest journey and something to write with.

Join us!
