 Because Eagle Eye involves children hiding independently in the forest, before the game begins 1) discuss and role model counter tracking and pathfinding to minimize the impact to the local flora, and 2) scout the game area thoroughly, looking up and down, listening and smelling for hazards. Be aware of wasps nests, dead trees and overhead branches, ground nests, dangerous or poisonous plants, trash, and more.

 A Pathfinder defines an "eagle's nest," a small circle about 3 feet in diameter, using sticks, rocks, pine cones, backpacks – anything that creates a clear visual boundary of the nest's edge.

 ==Story==
-What is the essence of this game?
+Eagle Eye is a fun variation of hide-and-seek. It teaches many lessons: how to be still and silent, how to move quickly and quietly, how to be comfortable getting dirty and deeply immersed in the woods.
 ====Action Call====
-Compelling questions / challenges to get kids excited to play.
+As an Eagle, can you spot the Hiders by Paying Attention? As a Hider, can you use camouflage, cover, and dead space so you can see the Eagle without the Eagle seeing you?

+'''Watch the numbers.''' In an effort to stop Hiders from cheating (hiding where they can’t see the Eagle with at least one eye at all times), consider having the Eagle hold a number of fingers up above their head for a few seconds once per round. When the game is concluded, the winning Hider must be able to recite all the numbers that were displayed (so it’s a test of memory, too!)
