Can you survive in the Arctic?Pick the choice that is best fit for the situation and see if you survive!

Your best friend lives across the frozen lake.

How do you go see her?Dog sledKayak

You are correct! You make it safely across the frozen lake.

Ice wouldnt be the best to add to the outside of the home.
