Our 3-year-old great-granddaughter has learned all the landmarks on the way to all the normal destinations. If you are taking her to school (mother's day out) and you decide to sidetrack to pick up something from a different location she will let you know that you are lost. If she sees a landmark that she recognizes, that is not on the route to the destination you were headed for, she will let you know she found you so you are no longer lost and you can go ahead and pick up the item and then take her to school. She will watch for landmarks on the new route so she can find you again if you get lost at a later date.
At my age, I need all the help I can get because I stay lost most of the time.
