Simple Scavenger Hunt {with printable}

This week, the boys and I went on a simple Scavenger Hunt {on a trail near our house}.  We packed our clipboards, pencils and picnic, and off we went.


I decided to keep things simple -- I made a list using words for my six year old and added little pictures for my younger two boys.

You can download a {free} version of the list I made here.

The boys had a great time "checking off" all the things on the list, and I really enjoyed our walk through the woods.  :-)


Have you ever taken your little ones on a Scavenger Hunt?  If not, why not print off my list and give it a try?

    I've pinned this so I can use it at a later date. Now that I understand you don't actually need to bring the stuff back with you it feels more doable ; )

    Thank you!! So clever!! And I think when you put anything on a clipboard they find it immediately "adult" and want to do it even MORE LOL

    You had me at "simple"! I love your ideas because they are just that, simple. In my world that translates to do-able. Thanks for all of your ideas. I'm always looking for outdoor activities for my boys.

    They’re fascinating to look at, all caught up with what they’re doing. :D I think it was great to add pictures on the list. To make sure the younger ones get to enjoy the activity as much as their older brother. I also just treated my kids to a pirate-themed scavenger hunt last week. We had a blast! I think I’ll try a nature-inspired one like yours next. ;)

    This is great love how simple it is for the little one to use the list himself and find these items . It will be fun to do . I'm thinking we're going to make it a golf cart adventure this week. Thank you.
