I think I've done all of them but I'm not sure about the British-centric wording on some of them.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh. Don't think I could have done that at 11.
I'm assuming 'bouldering' just means rock climbing.

Then that means you're more than 30 years old. 
Oh, I thought it was a last 5-10 years or so thing!
Is it not connected to Google maps then?

It is fairly new but all it requires is a GPS device. You read the coordinates, find the hidden cache, take something, leave something and then re-hide it.
I've found a few on mountains and in the desert and it's kind of fun. There are probably caches within a mile of your home.
Oooooh. Strangely exciting!
Number 16 looks dodgy.
Ha.
38 is... weird. You're supposed to kidnap a baby butterfly and raise it as your own?
Or do they just mean find a chrysalis and watch it till a butterfly pops out? If so they need to reword.
There's a lot of things on that list I haven't done but I would definetly say everyone should have made mud pies by the time they are 11.
I remember msking cubbies as a kid. (thinkthat's what they mean by den). We used to get all the chairs from the kitchen table and put them in the lounge room. Then we used get the biggest sheets we could find and throw them over the chairs. We would play inside for hours.

36. Call an owl
How are we supposed to do that without having a telephone number for AJGO and Keewik or actually even knowing them back then?

You could call an Owl "A flea bitten, mangy feathered, mouse stealing, killer of baby rats!!"
Present company excepted.
I would find a suitable hiding place if I were you Bill
