When I read Sara's latest expedition report, I became aware that there are only very few expeditions with children. Kids are fun, so I thought it might be a nice idea to encourage introducing the little ones into the fascinating world of geekdom spontaneous expeditions. Maybe this achievement could be split into two parts. One for accompanying someone of twelve years or less on the expedition and one for those who actually went on an expedition at this age themselves.

A few regulations:

  • Consent or attendance of the legal guardians should be absolutely mandatory.
  • Participants should check thoroughly whether the route to the hashpoint is suitable for children. There should be no exceedingly long walks, difficult terrains, raptor enclosures or similar obstacles.
  • Rather, it might be a good idea to get this achievement in combination with the Buccaneer, Snowman, GeoSquishy or similar achievements.

Discuss!
