It is a good way to drag kids away from their computer/tv screens and get them out side for a day though.
I could compile a fairly long list of outdoor activities which kids might find more fun. Power kites and sandboarding for two, both for a similar outlay to a handheld GPS. Geocaching might just cut it for the 7-10 age group.

We find it works best if someone lays out a series of very large rusty piles of metal on the sea bed, the idea is you spend hundreds of £s visitng them , often the same one!
It's definitely not just for kids...

Is it a bit like finding a parking space at the supermarket on a Saturday. A certain sense of satisfaction, but no real victory worth writing home about?
we do it with out a GPS.. try the old way with just a map and compass its more of a challenge and it teach,s the kids how to read and understand a map you get more satisfaction plus you don,t need loads batteries

Why not just ditch the map and compass and have the kids wander around the countryside for days, randomly kicking over rocks and shoving thier hands in rotton tree trunks?
I'll have to show you the book 'Pot of Gold' produced some 10 years ago with a £5,000 prize......Sadly the pot was found by a holiday maker by accident.
