Laps to Lapland
Santa’s reindeer need to get back to Lapland to pull the sleigh in time for Christmas Eve! Doing The Daily Mile will help them fly back home – every time you complete one, add it to the map and see their journey unfold.
Will they get back in time to deliver Santa’s presents? It’s down to your class!

Map miles
To set-up the map:
- Search how many miles it is from your school to Lapland
- Using the below formula, work out your ‘map miles’
Formula:
- A = Miles to school from Lapland
- B = Number of days left in the school term
- A divided by B = the number of ‘map miles’ that each Daily Mile counts for (1 Daily Mile completed = 1 map mile).
