🏹 What Is Archery?

Archery is one of the oldest skills people have – humans have used bows and arrows for thousands of years. Today it's a sport where the goal is to hit the very center of a target. The middle is usually yellow and scores the most points. Archers need a steady hand, calm breathing and lots of patience. Archery also has strict safety rules: you only shoot at the target and only when nobody is in front of it. Archery is an Olympic sport, too!

🎨 Creative Tip: What to Do With the Finished Picture

Glue the finished target onto a paper plate and make a little paper arrow to go with it – now you've got an indoor aiming game. Or hang the picture above your desk as a reminder to keep your eyes on the goal!
