Are you ready for a super fun outdoor adventure? Let’s play a game called Name Number Steps! It’s a great way to combine learning about your name and exploring the great outdoors. Grab a friend or your family and let’s get moving!

What You’ll Need

• You and your friends or family!
• A Safe Outdoor Space: This can be your backyard, a park, or anywhere outside where you have space to walk around.

Step 1: Count the Letters in Your Name

1. Say Your Name: Start by saying your name out loud.
2. Count the Letters: Use your fingers to count how many letters are in your name. For example, if your name is “Sam,” that’s 3 letters!

Step 2: Choose Your Direction

Now it’s time to decide which direction you want to take your steps. You can go:

• Forward
• Backward
• To the left
• To the right

Step 3: Take Your Steps!

1. Count Your Steps: Start from your spot and take the same number of steps as the letters in your name. So if you have 4 letters, take 4 steps.
2. Explore Your Surroundings: As you walk, look around! What do you see? Are there any interesting plants, animals, or objects?

Step 4: Share Your Discoveries

1. Talk About What You Saw: After you take your steps, share what you found with your friends or family. Did you see a cool bug? A pretty flower?
2. Draw or Write: If you have a notebook, you can draw what you saw or write a few sentences about your adventure.

Safety Tips:

• Stay Safe: Make sure you’re in a safe area and away from busy roads.
• Stay Together: If you’re with friends or family, make sure everyone can see each other while you explore.

Fun Facts:

• Did you know that names can come from different cultures and can mean different things? For example, the name “Lila” means “night” in Arabic!
• The longest name in the world has more than 600 letters! It’s so long that it would take a long time to say!
