Here are some scavenger hunt resources to bookmark to help you create your treasure or scavenger hunt.
I like to design my scavenger hunts for multi-tasking fun where teams use their collective creativity, imagination and ingenuity to solve different types of challenges.
Here’s an example of what I mean.
Operation City Slickers – Our City Scavenger Hunt Game
with Photo Challenges, Items to Find and Creative Team Projects
You’ll need about 2 hours minimum for this hunt (unless you remove some challenges). Your group will be divided into teams of 3 to 10 people. Each team will receive a collection bag (knapsack, duffle bag or even a plastic shopping bag will do) containing a digital camera (or you can use one smart phone per team), the hunt itself and various supplies. They’ll then embark on the scavenger hunt, taking pictures, obtaining specific items, solving brain teasers and completing a trivia quiz. All the challenges are worth valuable points and there are some bonus point challenges as well. At the conclusion of the hunt, the teams will prepare an optional final presentation while you “grade” their challenge sheets to find the winners based on point total (award certificates are included with this hunt). THE WINNING TEAM will have had the most fun as a team while collecting the most points.
So without further ado, here are the resources I promised:
