Scavenger hunts are usually thought of for parties or large groups, but they’re just as fun for small families or even individual children! A scavenger hunt adds an element of competition, urgency, and excitement to an everyday event to make it special. You can make almost anything into a scavenger hunt!

• Something that begins with the letter “__”

• Something that is the colour “___”

• Something that has wheels

• Something you can eat

• Something you can wear

• Something that is soft

• Something that floats

• Something smaller than a penny

• Something you can play with

• …etc!

For more excitement, provide a series of clues or math puzzles for your little one to follow around the house like a treasure hunt! You can even lead them to a prize!
