+The Blorenges Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Glad you had a good time, well done on your first Seeing that picture of your children makes me wish that the 'tradition' of swapping swag (or just leaving a trinket) in geocaches was still as popular as it used to be. Many cachers don't bother with it at all now. MrsB Quote Link to comment

Many cachers don't bother with it at all now. MrsB I still leave stuff in caches, but I very rarely take anything, unless the cache is so full I can't close the lid - which is *very* rare. If more people were to leave things without taking, caches would gradually get fuller. It doesn't have to be anything that actually costs money; there's lots of free stuff that gets given away (DVDs in newspapers, stuff in Christmas crackers, for example). Quote Link to comment
+AbbieK Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 I cache with my toddler and so I'm very grateful to those who leave swag! (Anything he finds in a cache is infinitely better than something Mummy could give him). It is a really lovely thing to do together, I've discovered some lovely places to go walking with my toddler.

jadenrich2101 Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 I cache with my 3 year old and he has a toy story bag that he takes with him and that has little swaps in it....hes also learnt that if you want to take something out of a cache you have to put something back in! Tip - Make sure you check inside the cache before the children as some people have reported strange (and disgusting) things in some caches around Britain Welcome to the addiction Quote Link to comment
billymaya Posted June 30, 2011 Author Share Posted June 30, 2011 i think little hope would of taken the lot if she could of lol there was lots of items inside the cache so we took a rather funky white eden sessions drink token and left a pewter mickey mouse key ring from disney land paris Quote Link to comment
