Scavenger Hunt Game

2 or more players
Ages: 7 and up
Need small objects to hide, pencil, paper, timer, plastic bags

If played indoors you'll need to let the kids search in at least 3 rooms.

If outside, be sure to have a large enough area where you can hide different objects.

For indoor games, anything found inside the house makes good seeking objects.

Candy, coins, photos, toys, fruit, and crayons are some ideas for your list.

You can write the object on paper for younger kids. For older kids, you can describe the object they are searching for.

Example, one of the items is an apple. You can write, "I'm a food and can be red or green. I grow on a tree."

For outdoor games, rocks, leaves and tree limbs are good objects.

Make sure the game is played in a yard under adult supervision and not on streets or near ponds or lakes. Safety first!

Begin by giving each player a plastic bag and the list of items to find. Set a time limit, 20 minutes is good.

Players then start looking for the items on their list.

The winner is either the person who finds all the objects first, or the player with the most objects after 20 minutes is up.

This can also be played as a team building game for kids.

The first team to collect all the objects (or the most objects in 20 minutes) wins.
