Now that you have had time to look at the links provided the other day, I thought it would be interesting to talk about the money that could be made in this type of game. Of course the GPS creators would like to get in on this idea, so the website I have attached is all about Garmin and how Garmin users can sign up via this website and start geocaching using their product.

This week we are talking about simulation games in the library for interactive learning. Geocaching has several sites for children that will help them learn about science as well as history through the use of geocahing. Here is one below

I just read the "Geocaching Garmin-Style" page. It's definitely clever of them to take a popular use of their product and use it to market the product itself. It was only a matter of time, right?

Thanks for the link to the MOST website too... it has some very cool links and ideas! I look forward to checking it out more this afternoon. :)

Very clever of Garmin to promote the use of their product in this way.

I love the link to the MOST. As I said before, Boy Scouts enjoy geocaching and I am sure younger ages would also.

Thanks for the informative links.
