I love a good scavenger hunt. There’s just something so exciting about reading the clues, running around, and racing against the clock or someone else. Let’s just say that friendly competition is something that I thoroughly enjoy.

In addition to me, a middle aged mom, teens love to have fun too. And guess what?! Fun can occur off the phone and off the game system. Toss the electronics and enjoy a good ‘ole at home treasure hunt.

What are the rules of a scavenger hunt?

Oh! You want rules and some guidance. Sorry, I thought for a second I was dealing with teenagers. Really, the great thing about a teen scavenger hunt is that you can have a basis for the rules, but they’re more than likely going to make some up on their own! The biggest thing to remember is that some printable cards and clues basically tell them what to look for – and that is the only rule that there is…. look for the next clue card until you get to the end.

If you have a lot of teens participating, it might be wise to create some basic ground rules like “no running in the house!” I might add in a few personal rules like “get along” and “don’t wreck mom’s house.” You can split the game up some, like player one finds the first clue, player two the second, etc. so everyone gets a chance to participate.

Other than those simple rules, the game is self-lead… let the games begin!

Printable Teen Scavenger Hunt Clues

The fun part about these clues is that they’re made just for teens! Have them work their brains and try to figure out where the next clue is hidden – and don’t give them any help (or at least for a while.) The hunt comes with answers to the riddles too (in case you find your are stumped as well.)

The more teens that are playing, the funnier it gets. This is because sometimes, more pots in the kitchen make that space too crowded. Who will have the right idea about where the next clue is? You’ll have to sit back and relax and watch to find out.

Are these hard scavenger hunt clues?

Yes and no. These are challenging scavenger hunt riddles for teens.  They are not meant for younger kids. Initially they will be hard scavenger hunt clues, however once your children get the hang of solving these rhyming riddles, they likely will get into a rhythm of guessing quickly. If you have a group of younger kids, pair them with older kids.

Want a variation with a harder modern twist? One fun way to add a bit of an additional challenge is to test the scavenger hunt yourself. See how long it takes you in your dwelling and then challenge the players with a time limit (less than what it took you.) Set a timer. On your mark, get set, go! Racing against the clock adds a bit of excitement.
