Tips for a successful Scavenger Hunt

Preparation is key for a successful scavenger hunt. You'll want to make sure you have collected all your clues, have planned your route and made a note of each of the solutions in advance. The good news is we've done all the hard work for you with our St. Patricks day scavenger hunt. It comes with all the instructions you need and our suggestion for a fun route around the house but if you are making your own at home here are a few things to bear in mind.

 

 

Tip for a fun scavenger hunt! Scavenger hunts are the most fun when racing from one room of the house to another. So, bearing this in mind, spread out your clues and avoid having sequential clues in the same room. Try to use clues that incorporate the whole house, use outdoor space if you have them available to you too and hide your clue cards so they have to be found, rather than just spotted. This allows you to be creative with hiding spots and extends the fun.

Take it up a notch. Some of the most fun scavenger hunts I've designed and setup have been ones that incorporate puzzles that need to be solved in order to find the next location. This requires more thought when designing but the rewards for fun, and a sense of achievement by your children, are high. Ideas for puzzles can be word searches, suduko puzzles, anagrams or more physical ones like jigsaws, padlocks or knots to untangle. The more you use your imagination the better the results will be.
