Interestingly, some centres and schools have experimented with using mobile phones for mapping activities. However what tends to happen is the kids zoom in on the phones and spend the time checking out its functions rather than focusing on the task in hand which such as checking lichens on church walls and council buildings!

One day I'll get to grips with it, and my Hubby sorts out this side of things for us too, that it until Holly starts school and teaches us new tricks.
