From the book
Why Spy?
The truth is, most people spy everyday.
Do you notice where your dad hides his favourite cookies? Do you know what time your mom takes her shower? Do you know which way your friend walks home from school? That’s like spying. Only spying is much more than that.
When you spy, you make a plan to find out information. Who to watch. When to watch. What’s important and what’s not.
Sometimes, you can spy on your own. But most of the time, it’s easier to have another spygirl help you out. And more fun, too!
Powers of observation
Every good spy needs to keep their eyes open and remember what they see. Even a small detail can turn out to be very important.
Take notice of what people wear, how they walk and who they talk to. Watch to see if they are passing objects or messages to anyone.
Most people follow patterns of movement. Where does the suspect go and at what time? When do they eat dinner? Keep notes and soon you’ll know where to find your suspect without having to follow them around all day.
Spy tip: Want to throw off an enemy spy? Change your patterns. If you usually walk the dog before you eat breakfast, try doing it the other way around once in a while.
