It is a fun way of remembering what you have seen and where you have been. Aboriginal people in Australia used journey sticks to more easily recount their journeys to other people upon their return. They found a large walking stick, collected materials found along the way, and tied them to the stick in chronological order. Native Americans also decorated sticks to recount their journeys and tell about their travels.<\/p>\n<p>You will need a stick that is about 30cm long and quite thick, some coloured wool and a pair of scissors.<\/p>\n<p>As you go out for your walk collect things that you see, such as a feather or a leaf. Each time you find a new treasure use the wool to tie it to your stick. When you get home see if you can use your journey stick to tell someone about your walk<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"7786\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/wenvoe.org.uk\/?attachment_id=7786\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wenvoe.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Journey-Stick.jpg?fit=763%2C433\" data-orig-size=\"763,433\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Journey Stick\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wenvoe.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Journey-Stick.jpg?fit=300%2C170\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wenvoe.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Journey-Stick.jpg?fit=763%2C433\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7786\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wenvoe.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Journey-Stick.jpg?resize=763%2C433\" alt=\"\" width=\"763\" height=\"433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wenvoe.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Journey-Stick.jpg?w=763 763w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wenvoe.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Journey-Stick.jpg?resize=300%2C170 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 763px) 100vw, 763px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to make a journey stick Have you ever made a journey stick when you are out for a walk?
