This printable Garden Journal for Kids is the perfect way to get the kids outside, active, and exploring! Not only will this get them excited and engaged, but it’s the perfect way to spend quality time together, too! Gardening is a great activity for kids and adults – so why not enjoy the process together? Just print to get started!

Garden journaling is a great activity for so many different reasons. Having the kids journal is such a simple way to get them thinking outside the box!

If you’re looking forward to introducing them to the world of gardening or just having some help in the garden – use this fun garden journal and garden scavenger hunt printable to do just that!

Today we will look at what a garden journal is, how to create your own journal for gardening and explore our super cute garden life journal for kids.

What is Garden Journaling?

Garden journaling is different in the way that it records thoughts while also helping to plan out a garden at the same time. One of the biggest hurdles of having a garden is actually getting started – and this is where having a journal specific to gardening will help.

This is a super fun outdoor activity that helps to connect the want for starting a garden with simple and actionable steps to actually make it happen. Using a garden journal is a great way to encourage freedom to explore thoughts, be creative, and make observations.

This is also a fun way to explore other outdoor activities like Fun Outdoor Scavenger Hunt For Kids as well. Once you get started with this type of outdoor journal, it’ll open your eyes to all the other areas of the great outdoors to explore.

How to start a Garden Journal

The first thing that you need to do is print the journal, and the next part is to grab a pen or a pencil. Those are really the only two steps that you need to take to get started on journaling.

If you want to make it easy to organize and keep a hold of the pages, use a hole punch and a three-ring binder to keep the pages in place. You can also use a clipboard to hold the pages as well.

How do I use a garden journal?

Great question! While every page has specific steps and instructions on them, it’s up to you to decide how you want to use this journal.

There are no set “rules” for using this journal, but the guidelines are great for keeping focus and for helping foster creative thoughts.

There are also areas where drawings and notes can easily be added so that if someone gets a fun thought or sees a beautiful flower or plant while in the garden area, they can easily draw it or write it down to remember or come back to later.

The best part about journaling is that you can totally go off the radar and make it your own thing, too! This is your journal with your thoughts and your ideas, so it just makes sense to make it your own.

Garden Activities Printable

What I find really interesting about gardening is that no two gardens are the same. Some focus more on planting and growing flowers, while others will have herbs and vegetables. And let’s not forget all the various sizes, locations, and varied growing times.

In this garden printable set, have fun exploring the objects that are found, planting times, and just being able to immerse yourself in the garden scene so that you can see the beauty.

The fun part about having a printable packet for gardening is that it lets you slow down and take the time to observe. This would be perfect to combine with hiking to get outside and explore.

Included in this garden printable activity:

Garden Log Cover Page
Garden Journal Planting Log
Garden Observations
Garden Scavenger Hunt List (written)
Garden Scavenger Hunt List (with photo prompts)

Even though this journal isn’t editable, you can print it as many times as you want for your various gardening activities. If you have multiple kiddos or want to use it to teach a gardening lesson, it’s perfect for doing just that!

Make sure to grab this garden journal for kids! Your first time gardener will love a sweet outdoor activity. The outdoor scavenger hunt plus fun planning pages. This will give them the chance to create their own garden space to grow their own goodies!

Garden Observation Worksheets

You’ll notice that there is a portion for making observations about what they say, what they notice, and objects found. They can draw, checkmark, or even just doodle as they please.

This is a great time to answer the following questions to help with observation skills.

What did you learn from spending time in the garden?
What can you improve in the garden?

Garden Scavenger Hunts

Exploring the garden area with a garden scavenger hunt is so much fun for the kids. This garden activities worksheet printable includes two types of scavenger hunt printables, including a Garden Scavenger Hunt Written and a Garden Scavenger Hunt List with photos.

Have the kids find some of the following items in the garden:

Wheelbarrow
Watering can
Yellow flower
Hose
And more!

Having one option with pictures means that it opens up the opportunity for all ages to join in on the fun!

Garden Nature Journal PDF

Kids who want to keep a garden journal can use these handy printables to track what they planted, when they watered and harvested each crop, and other information.

Have fun with this printable garden journal activity pack. The kids will love planning and exploring the garden area!

All you need to do is download this Garden Activities Printable PDF to get started (also on Etsy.) You can print this packet in black and white, or color!

Enjoy cute bachelorette party theme ideas with these super cute printable bachelorette scavenger hunts. Have clean fun (or dirty fun) in bars, on a cruise, in Vegas, in Miami, Charleston, Nashville, and more. We promise the bride will love them!

What are fun things to do at a Bachelorette Party?

No matter your city or location, there are plenty of fun things that can be had at a bachelorette party. The most important thing you want the bride and bride tribe to leave with is memories of fun. A commemorative bachelorette party favor, a personalized T-shirt, or a themed party game can make a party or girls’ get-together feel unique and remind people of the great time that was had later on.

Consider some of these fun ideas for a bachelorette party…

Go away on a girls’ trip! Can’t afford an entire girls’ weekend trip, just make it a singular hen night. Getting out of your comfort zone and an unfamiliar environment adds a bit of an adventure.
Keep it funny. Okay, there might be a few photos that don’t make it to social media like the “same penis forever” banner your grandmother might faint at seeing. Then again, she might just get it. She is how old?
Bring something sexy and fun. Have all guests bring a pair of underwear to the event. They can gift the bride something special. Make it a fun bachelorette party game by having the bride guess who gave her which pair of panties. You can even use this sexy underwear as cute bachelorette party decor.
Create a theme. There are plenty of fun ideas you can play on like the last fiesta, sail before the veil nautical theme, or Vegas now, vows later. YOu don’t have to hit these locations to stay within the fun theme.
Read the bride. If she works daily in a highly stressful environment, then consider keeping it low-key. Host a spa party or go on a relaxing retreat.
Have a wine tasting at a winery or even host a bachelorette wine party at home. Grab a special bottle the maid-of-honor can toast with at the wedding rehearsal or wedding reception.
Add a few fun activities like bach games or selfie bachelorette scavenger hunts. Games and activities bring low-cost bachelorette party entertainment but plenty of impressionable life-long memories.

Take a look at these themed bachelorette scavenger hunt ideas.

Bachelorette Scavenger Hunt Ideas

Bachelorette parties are events for the bride to celebrate her final days as a single girl. They can be filled with activities including a bridal party scavenger hunt. A scavenger hunt is a game where a person (or group of people) begins to find items on a checklist. By combining both a bachelorette party and a scavenger hunt, you put together themed actions and items for the bridal party to photograph or check off the list. Points are awarded based on the most amazing dares performed.

Before completing a bachelorette treasure hunt, the “I do crew” can discuss the number of points the bride must earn on the printable Bachelorette checklist. The bridal party crew can then can have fun bachelorette party favors or prizes she earns as she performs the series of tasks.

When putting together a scavenger hunt for a bachelorette idea, consider some of these fun tips…

Only photographic evidence counts. This scavenger hunt list is easily turned into fun photo challenges. If this is what happens ins “Vegas” stays in “Vegas” type of night, then erase photos at the end of the night.
Have fun bachelorette party props to keep the girls’ night them. A fun veil, a sparkling light-up diamond ring, and heart sunglasses are sure to express the “bachelorette party” to the outside world. Having matching items might ensure that one bridesmaid doesn’t get lost after a few drinks!
Have before and after photos. Bachelorette Mug Shot photos are great for before the night begins and after everyone gets back. If everyone hits the pillow before the last photo, then early morning photos before brunch might actually make you cry.
Feel free to use creative freedom. Just let the bride have fun and enjoy the night. Don’t push her toward anything she will regret but be sure to fill her night with laughter and fun. There is no reason to drink or alternatively, there is all the reason to drink. Before reading your bride tribe, be sure to read the bride and head in a direction with fun ideas she will like.

Fun ideas you can add to a selfie bachelorette scavenger hunt game include…

Find a guy with the same name as the groom
Dance on a bar
Get a piggy back ride
Get someone to buy you a drink
Take a group photo at a historic monument or city location
Start a chant
Post a TikTok dance
Photobomb a photo
Use the men’s restroom
Take a selfie with strangers

… and more!

Award high and low points based on how challenging or daring a task might be.

April 21, 2023 by Ashley Langston Filed Under: Birthday, Facebook, Games, Instagram, Party, Pinterest, Printable, Social Media

Are you looking for some great birthday scavenger hunt ideas for adults? You’re in luck! Whether you’re looking for an indoor scavenger hunt for adults or a fun way to make a birthday party unique, these are the best clues out there! This adult scavenger hunt can be used for couples during a romantic celebration or a birthday party for a group of people. The editable scavenger hunt template allows you to add your own personalized treasure hunt clues. Perfect for an adult of any age who loves games, laughter, and fun!

The fun part about having an adult birthday treasure hunt is that it’s a great way to break the ice and dive right into the fun activities and creative birthday games for adults. Because sometimes, all celebrations need a little something to shake things up!

Who says that kids get to have all the fun? Scavenger hunts for adults are totally a thing – as they should be! The best part is that all the guests at the party will be running around, letting their “friendly competition” shine. Add a few drinks in your hand, set a time limit, and let everyone have a great time ~~acting a fool~~.

Alternatively, this adult scavenger hunt can also be used for two. Since extra clues are included, transition these scavenger hunt clues into a couples scavenger hunt with an optional scavenger hunt clue card that ends up in the…. bed!

While you can print off these his and her scavenger hunt cards and questions, there are editable scavenger hunt cards, as well, to add your own clues and ideas transitioning your clues into a themed celebration. This makes this simple printable scavenger hunt game a great option to use over and over again including for birthday parties, showers, romantic date nights, older kids’ birthdays, and more!

Even if you’re not interested in adding your own flair and spin, let the birthday scavenger hunt riddles included be the show’s star. The rhyming riddle clue cards are a little more complicated than the kid’s version but not too hard that nobody won’t be successful.

When should this adult scavenger hunt be used?

This fun adult scavenger hunt set includes four birthday scavenger hunt clues you can add to the hunt. While I’m suggesting that it be used for a scavenger hunt birthday party, you can literally use this at-home scavenger hunt for so much more than that.

This is where the fun starts! There is a scavenger hunt for him and a scavenger hunt for her with optional birthday clue cards. That means you can keep the birthday scavenger hunt for adult clue cards out of the hunt.

So think outside the box. What is a special occasion or reason you could use with a scavenger hunt with the adults in your life?

Make a fun scavenger hunt for adults for the following reasons…

Surprise Birthday Party
Romantic Treasure Hunt
Holiday or Special Occasion
Milestone Birthday Celebration – 21st, 30th, 40th, 50th
Job Promotion
Surprise Vacation
Retirement
New Pet
Team Building
Special Gift
Baby Announcement
New Car
Wish List Gift
Adult Scavenger Hunt for Birthday Gift

… and so much more!

This would also be great for family events, bachelorette party fun, and even a great way to have the older kids in the house (that are adult age!) take part in some creative fun.

Funny Scavenger Hunt Ideas for Adults

Maybe I’m biased, but I think that all these ideas are funny and fun! So find your inner childhood and get ready to have a blast! Don’t forget that not all the cards have to be used, and the editable printable scavenger hunt cards give so many options to add even more fun ideas and questions.

Scavenger Hunt Clues for Adults

These birthday treasure hunt clues around the house aren’t necessarily racy, they just happen to be harder riddles for adults to solve. In addition to being harder riddles about objects at home, there are a few riddles that mention drinks (implied adult beverages) and one optional couple’s treasure hunt clue that ends in bed. This clue can, of course, be left out and another clue can be replaced to finish the birthday treasure hunt.

These are a few example clue cards included in the adult scavenger hunt set.

First Clue

This first clue kicks off the fun, which will last until we’re done. To make sure that you’re not last, look where your foot presses to go fast.

Clue 2

To find the next clue, you’ll have to think, you always go here when you need a drink.

Final clue – optional birthday clue

Happy birthday to you, I hope you have the best year. Now one last place for us to head, let’s get in the ____ (bed).

… and 21 more adult scavenger hunt clue cards pick the ones you want or use the editable scavenger hunt template to write your own personalized scavenger hunt clues.

How to write your own clues for adults

However, if you don’t like these clues you can create your own with the editable PDF document. Simply think of the place you want the clue to be found. For example, in the bed and find a word that could rhyme with bed. Let’s say red.

Then get creative and write your own romantic scavenger hunt clue.

“Don’t let your face turn red, meet me in the bed!“

If that isn’t for you, no worries! Use our twenty-four included rhyming riddles for adults.

Scavenger Hunt Prizes for Adults

One of my favorite parts of scavenger hunts is the bonding memories but of course the fun prizes. One of the best ways to make a scavenger hunt more interesting is to have small prizes. These fun gifts are can be used at the end of the scavenger hunt with the last final clue. However, if you have lots of small gifts, have them with each clue card! Before launching the scavenger hunt, be sure to decide on the prizes that the winner will get!

Some fun scavenger hunt prizes for adults might include:

Gift certificates
Spa day package
Candy or chocolates
Sports tickets
Movie night bundle
Coupons coupon booklets
Fun snacks and treats
Small liquor bottles
Gift cards
Books
Romantic IOUs

And those are just a few ideas! Since you’re going to be having this scavenger hunt with your family and close friends, you’re the one that knows them the best – and knows what prizes are great choices! Just use a little creativity.

Supplies

It couldn’t be easier to print and start playing this scavenger hunt game for adults! Some suggestions for needed supplies are listed below:

Printer (with ink)
Printer paper or cardstock paper (my favorite set)
Laminator (optional – I love this one)

How do I start a scavenger hunt?

Unfortunately, not everyone can participate in the hunt, as someone will need to be the moderator. The host for the scavenger hunt (or moderator) will need to be able to present the clues and then make sure that the rules of the game are followed by the participants.

Cute Pond Nature Journal For Kids

This post may contain affiliate links or ads. Read my privacy policy and disclosure policy here.

March 28, 2023 by Ashley Langston Filed Under: Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Printable, Social Media, Summer, Travel

This Pond Nature Journal for Kids is so much fun! Get the kids outside exploring all they can find with this pond scavenger hunt! It’s a great way to look at the beauty of nature together as a family! Just print, and get the search started with nature journaling. You’re sure to see the beauty and get in your steps for the day!

Nature journaling is a fun outdoor activity for families. There are many benefits of nature and journaling is the perfect way to get fresh air, explore your surroundings, or look at the living world differently. Nature journaling can be done with kids, adults, friends, and family. Explore ponds, creeks, rivers, fields, trails, mountains, and more.

Today we will look at what is nature journal, how to create your own nature journal, and our fun pond life journal for young kids.

What is Nature Journaling?

In the same way that one records their thoughts and feelings, nature journaling can be done in parallel. Nature journaling is simply writing down one’s experiences and illustrations in response to the natural world. It’s a relaxing outdoor activity not only for adults but for children too. This fun outdoor activity connects the writer with the great outdoors and living world. Nature journals can be self lead through creative and free thought. Alternatively, nature journaling can be directed using nature observation worksheets or fun outdoor scavenger hunt printables.

How to Start a Nature Journal

To start a nature journal, grab paper and a pencil. That’s it. Free form is a great way to start writing and illustrating the observations you see in our natural world. Keep your paper together in a binder, folder, or notebook to create an exploration journal. A journal can be done over a short period of time like during a day or weekend. Nature journaling can also be done over a long series of time creating a lifelong diary or nature logbook.

How does an observation journal work?

The fun part about having a journal full of observations is that everyone’s will be different. The goal of nature journaling is broad. Journal entries can record changes in animal tracks, sketches of the outdoor environment, or even fictional stories about the environment one’s in.

If freeform is less your jam, we have something fun for you. Learn about our pond life explorer nature journal for young kids. This printable journal set can be used as pondlife activities for preschoolers and a list of their discoveries. Alternatively, take it as part of an outdoor family hike and create your very own exploration nature journal for the family. All the prompts are right there, just waiting to be completed!

Let’s take a look!

Pond Life Activities Printable

I don’t know how often we’ve looked at a pond and just kept walking. But when you take the time to slow down and look at all the beauty, there are so many things to see! In this pond life science activities printable set, experience nature by creating your own pond-life nature journal observations.

The fun part about searching and looking for things related to a pond is that everyone gets to be a part of the fun. We’ve used this activity during sleepovers, campouts, hikes, and even just a fun family day where we put the screens down, and spent time together, face to face.

Included in this pond printable activity:

Pond Explorer Cover Page
Pond Observations Journal
Pond Explorer Reflection Questions
Pond Explorer Nature Scavenger Hunt List (written)
Pond Explorer Outdoor Scavenger Hunt List (with photo prompts)

For many of these natural journaling printables, print as many as you need to make multiple observations. There are prompts to help everyone know what to write or draw, but after that, it’s how they see and perceive it. An observation journal is an easy way to slow down and enjoy the time.

Make sure to grab this nature journal for kids! It has two outdoor scavenger hunts plus nature journal ideas! It’s great for preschoolers, young readers, and early learners!

Nature Observation Worksheets

First, see these nature observation journal prompts. Write the date,t time, weather conditions, location, and season. Draw different things you see on your adventure. Make a checklist of fun things you found and keep fun journal notes.

You can also make pond observations with a fun animal and plant journal. Answer nature journal questions that lead to observations about your pond including …

What did you learn about your visit to the pond?
What would you like to learn about the pond?
What can you do to improve pond life and pond ecosystems?

Nature Scavenger Hunts

Kids love outdoor exploration through a nature scavenger hunt. The pond life activities worksheet includes two types of pond outdoor scavenger hunts including a Pond Scavenger Hunt for Nature and a Pond Scavenger Hunt with Photos.

Find some of the following things at the pond…

Duck
Frog
Lily Pad
Dragonflies
Birds
Insects

For literacy activities, the scavenger hunt with words is meant for emergent readers and older kids who can read. The scavenger hunt with pictures is meant for young kids who did visual images of pond items they can look at and find on their own. Pair up older explorers and younger kids and do both!

Let each child create a check or circle over their items found so little learners can work on their fine motor skills during the small pond theme activities.

More Ideas for Nature Journaling at the Pond

Don’t forget to change it up to work for your needs! Make this printable nature journal for kids your own! You can use it just like it is or change it to something new.

Some fun ideas to personalize this pond life nature journal includes…

Have a fun prize

Don’t forget the prize and make it a friendly competition. It’s always fun to motivate people with a prize! If you can think of fun pond prizes, that is even better. A small prize would be gummy worms (to be like fishing worms!) and a larger prize could even be a fishing pole! Hit the dollar store to see what you can find.

Keep track as you go

If you want to make a point system, adding a counting element is a fun way. Have everyone count how many frogs they find, count the lilypads, and more! This turns the fun into a math activity. I think that we ended up counting 15 frogs and over 30 lilypads on our outdoor pond adventure. We all had a blast using this as our basis! There are so many things that you’ll see that you can add to the list as well. Have fun with it and go with the flow coming up with new ideas as you explore.

Collect fun things

Scientists and naturalists will enjoy having a small bucket or bag to carry the items they collect. Bring your fun trinkets back to the classroom and look at such items under a microscope. You can use such items to make your own nature arts & crafts or add to a fun hands-on nature sensory bin.

Add a photo contest

You’ll undoubtedly see a ton of really cool things while you’re looking around the pond. See who can take the best picture and share it with everyone! Use the nature treasure hunt to create your own photo scavenger hunt with pond items or photograph things not found in the outdoor treasure hunt like…

Pond patterns
Eggs, tadpoles, and frogs to create your own illustrated frog life cycle
Turtles
Cloud patterns

May the best photo win. Use your photos to add to your nature journal scrapbook.

This outdoor pond printable is easy to use and fun as well! Get ready to be in a friendly competition with the kids because you will look for everything, just like they are!

What ages can participate in this pond journal activity?

These pond life journal activities can be used for those young and old. Anyone who holds observation skills. There are endless ways that you can use this fun nature journal. Take it to the preschool classroom with toddlers. Share the skills of a naturalist and call each of your young tots scientists as they explore nature. You can also print these field guides for a family vacation or a fun trip to the countryside. Carry a magnifying glass, binoculars, a notebook, a writing utensil, and a bucket to collect fun things.

Once the weather starts to warm up, it’s the perfect time to get outside and get started with naturalists of all ages.

March 28, 2023 by Ashley Langston Filed Under: Facebook, Games, Instagram, Party, Pinterest, Printable, Social Media

Who says you must be in the same room as family and friends to do a fun activity? This virtual scavenger hunt proves that technology and clues can go hand in hand! Adults and teens can use the clues on the screen to find things around the house and race against one another. This is so much fun for a rainy day or a great way to plan a fun activity with those that you can’t be with physically at the moment.

Sometimes, taking a break from the screen isn’t what we all want to do. This is especially true with rainy days, down days, holidays, or just times that you’re missing someone that you can’t be with.

This is where having an online scavenger hunt is a great idea! It steps up the routine phone call or online game. Parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, friends, and even 3rd cousins can grab a phone, tablet, or computer. With one of those electronic devices, all you need next is a will to play – perhaps a bit of youthful energy.

The fun part about this editable scavenger hunt is that you can use the options listed or easily make up your own. This means that you can use the template over and over again so that it never gets old. With each new virtual game, twist up the virtual scavenger hunt list with your own desires and likes. Even fit your clues into any holiday or special occasion.

Not interested in changing it up? No problem. Best of all, even if you play the same game over and over, your answers will be different as the candy you had in the house in October might not be the same candy you have at home in March. Getting started with this scavenger hunt for adults is as simple as downloading the file, having a good internet connection, and allowing the fun searching to begin!

Who will be the winner? Only time will tell!

What age is this scavenger hunt for?

There is no age limit on this scavenger hunt. However, this virtual treasure hunt is best geared toward adults and teens because it requires a smartphone, computer, or tablet. In addition, the virtual treasure hunt really brings out a youthful competitive spirit in adults – reminding adults, they can have fun too!

Play with…

Adults
Teens
Grandparents
Family
Friends

That doesn’t mean that kids can’t join in on the fun. In this case, it is best to have an adult or pair older kids with younger kids for help.

What are the rules of scavenger hunts?

This is a find-it-fast virtual scavenger hunt though it can be played in person too.

The best part about scavenger hunts is that the rules are totally basic. With this printable, 36 scavenger hunt clues are already ready to go. Since the digital file PDF is editable, there is plenty of room for you to add your own.

It’s always a good idea to set some basic rules so that everyone is on the same page.

Decide on a moderator. This person will send a group text for each item to collect. This can be done over a smartphone, Zoom, Google Meet, Skype, etc. They will end the text with go wait for all players to return a photo of the item. The text will look like “First item is something striped… and go!”
Write down the first person to deliver a photo of the item over text or return the item in person or over video.

Figure out if you’re going to take pictures of items to text or if showing the items on the screen works for all. Also, if someone is using a computer and can’t take it with them, you’ll have to make it so that they can bring the item to the room to show on the screen as well. In fact, if you do it this way, you won’t have to get dizzy watching all of the players run through the house to find their item.

These simple scavenger hunt rules mean that you and your buddies can hit the ground running (maybe literally), trying to find all the clues.

It’s a scavenger hunt is a pretty easy game to play and it’s one that you can get started with ASAP!

Virtual Scavenger Hunt Clues

So now for the game – let’s talk about the supplies needed and example Virtual Scavenger Hunt Clues. With just a few materials, everyone is going to be involved and active – and having fun!

The more people that join in on the fun, the crazier and more competitive it gets. It’s always a fun idea to have adults working their brains and bodies – and this scavenger hunt will have them doing just that. It can even be used ice breaker or team building exercise for the office. Have teams compete in different areas of the office and work on problem-solving skills in a unit.

Make sure to have your camera finger ready because there’s a good chance that you’re going to get some epic photo moments on this wacky adventure.

Supplies

Remember how easy I said that this scavenger hunt game for adults was? You’re able to literally print instantly and use it!

Printer (with ink)
Printer paper or cardstock paper (my favorite set)
Laminator (optional – I love this one)
Computer or Smart Phone
Virtual Scavenger Hunt Clues
Optional – Timer

Who presents the virtual scavenger hunt ideas?

You will need to have one person being the moderator. They will be the ones that will present the clue, and then everyone participating will be off to the races. A host is a neutral person that will keep track of the score and the rules.

Example Scavenger Hunt List of Items:

A clothed selfie in a bathtub
Something with stripes
$0.67
A mop
Something broken
A deck of cards
A vegetable

…only photographic evidence or something on screen counts. Get ready to have fun!

These are just a few options – and remember that you can easily add more to create your own unique virtual scavenger hunt lists! With an editable PDF, there are endless options to make and find scavenger hunt clues.

When should I use this scavenger hunt activity?

This can be used for virtual fun! It’s so much fun for a family birthday as a way to hang out with relatives and include them in the day.

Use it for an office party and turn a mundane video conferencing call into a surprise virtual Soom scavenger hunt.

This would also be great to use for:

Virtual scavenger hunt for work
Holiday virtual scavenger hunt
Virtual baby shower scavenger hunt
Free virtual scavenger hunt for employees
Team building activities for youth groups
Family reunion

Having a virtual hunt means that the options are endless in ways that they can be used!

How do you keep score?

Let’s talk about how to score an adult scavenger hunt. The are a few ways to keep track of the winner. The moderator can keep real-time track of team members’ points. A leaderboard can be displayed on a dry-erase board with all participants’ names listed. The host can also text the group after each challenge with a list of each player’s points i.e Adam 8, Sarah 4, Jane 2, Mark – keep trying.

The host can adapt this as needed to fit their environment but generally, the virtual scavenger hunt rules are as follows…

The first person to return an item gets one point. You can also play with first, second, and third-place winners. For each round, the first person to return an item gets 3 points, the second person 2 points, and the last person 1 point.

Add a time limit or just let the wild ~~geese~~ players go. The game-winner is the player with the most totaled points last the end of all the rounds of the Virtual Game Treasure Hunt!

What are good prizes for a Virtual Scavenger hunt?

This game will get competitive. Virtual scavenger hunt games are a fun way to create bonds. Often the gloating, glory, and and team’s morale are enough intrinsic rewards. However, this fun game is for adults – have something really awesome they are going to work for.

Fun adult scavenger hunt prizes include…

Electronic gift cards
Wine
Small liquor bottles
Fancy restaurant certificates
Homemade dinner
Sports tickets
Entertainment tickets
Lottery tickets

While all the ideas are fun, think of a gift that could be sent over email – after all, this is an electronic scavenger hunt! Good prizes will really be a great incentive for crazy participation.

The last question remains…Where can I get this amazing adult scavenger hunt?

March 7, 2023 by Ashley Langston Filed Under: Facebook, Instagram, Kids, Pinterest, Printable, Social Media

These Transportation Worksheets are perfect for creative fun and fine motor skills! The kids will love using their imagination and creating many fun vehicles with their hands! Let them have fun with the process and show off their skills!

Little kids LOVE all sorts of transportation vehicles. From buses to the ice cream truck, kids can spot them a mile away! These fun transportation worksheets for preschoolers are one that lets them be a part of the creative process from the beginning to the end!

These hand-print worksheets show them that art and imagination can come together in a really cool and unique way. There are great for a rainy day, or a fun way to let the kids build their artistic and creative confidence. In addition to fun handprint art, these means of transportation worksheets work on literacy skills. Help kids bring forth kinetic learning while working on writing and sounding out letters to create a vehicle word.

What are some fun ideas for using these transportation worksheets for kindergarteners?

The best part about this printable transportation pack is that you can use them however you want! The kids can start with one, and take a break, or work their way through them all!

In these cute transportation worksheets, there are modes of transportation that include tires, shifts, buckets, mega wheels, and more. Take a look at these different kinds of transportation that are included in the set.

Modes of Transportation:

Ambulance
Bulldozer
Cement Mixer
Dump Truck

Ice Cream Truck
Jeep
Kayak
Locomotive
Mail Truck
Newspaper Truck
Old Time Car

I’m a huge fan of having fun options for any and all occasions! Some fun ideas to pair this with would be for a…

Sleepover Party
Classroom Activity
Birthday Party
Family Craft Night

Make sure to grab some paint, markers, and crayons for the kids so that they can decorate and color every page just like they imagine!

What are tips for using handprint worksheets?

Since not all handprints are the same, there are a few things to keep in mind. Talk to the kids and let them know that their handprints are not going to fit exactly into the handprint area, but that close enough is fine! That way, they won’t stress out about it and can move on with the rest of the activity.

You can also encourage them to think outside the box and trace their own handprints to recreate some of the transportation vehicles. This shows them that they’re capable of following directions and also using analytical thought to create something new and different, too.

While these A-Z transportation printables focus on quite a few options, it’s not a totally complete list. Have the kids use what they’ve learned and create another page about a vehicle that they haven’t done. They’ll love creative independence!

More Fun Activities for Early Learners

Tips for Printing These Worksheets about Transportation

Tempera Paint (This set is best)
Paint brushes
Crayons/Markers

Instructions

Once you download the public transportation workers, it’s a simple and fun process!

First, get the worksheets. Download your Transportation Printable Worksheets

Once they’re printed, make sure that they are in alphabetical order, and start. You can leave it as easy as that, or make it more, too. The options are up to you!

Talk to the kids about the different vehicle on the page, and then have them either stamp their handprint in the handprint area or trace and color it in.

You can also paint small hands with a paintbrush and allow each child to stamp their hand on their artwork. Let the hand dry and then continue to color your transportation coloring page.

They do this for each of the printable pages and work their way through! It’s actually a catch-22 in that it’s a fun activity for kids but also a cute keepsake for grandparents or you!

FAQ Vehicle Transporation Worksheets

Can these be used for first grade too?

Yes, use for preschool all the way to emergent readers in kindergarten, first, and second grade.

Do these include lowercase letters?

No. The alphabet worksheet set uses all capital letters.

Absolutely, while tempera paint is best for creating handprint art, feel free to use playdough, dot marker paint, crayons, colored pencils, watercolors, and more. The options are endless. You can even make this a fun pom-pom activity.

Typically scavenger hunts are reserved for at home or on a holiday like Easter or Valentines’ Day. What makes this an epically fun, unique scavenger hunt is the treasure hunt is set outside the home, often outside one’s own city or hometown. It’s a hotel scavenger hunt that makes a great activity for a resort, motel, conference center, hostel, or even a VRBO or Airbnb.

Family vacations and travel plans are so fun! While traveling in a plane or a car can be daunting and tiresome, that doesn’t mean that arriving at the hotel has to be a time to sleep.

Hotel Scavenger Hunt Clues and Ideas

Everyone will have a blast with these fun clues. These scavenger hunt clues were created so that all ages can join in the fun! Even if someone isn’t old enough to read, they can still see the pictures and be on the lookout for those items. There are two pages of clues that range from items to find in a hotel, to shapes and colors to be on the lookout for.

See a sneak peek below of the printable scavenger hunt PDF so that you know exactly what it looks like!

Hotel scavenger hunt items include:

coffee pot
do not disturb sign
luggage cart
workout center
brochure
front desk
swimming pool
fire extinguisher

These are just a few of the items that the kids (and adults) can try to spot in the hotel! And who knows, you may end up finding even more fun items that you have to add to your own scavenger hunt list!

Make it Your Own!

Each user can make this scavenger hunt personal. Since we are all visiting different scavenger hunt locations and have various scavenger hunt participants, try some of these fun ideas to make the treasure hunt your own.

Hotel scavenger hunt ideas include…

Have a Fun Prize

Grab a few party favors or rewards for a special treat at the end of the hunt. A small prize can also act as a souvenir. Visiting Disney? Then grab a few princess party favors or mickey gifts off the internet before you travel. Hnad these items out to reward success at the end of the treasure hunt.

Count As You Go

Use the provided checklist for a hotel but allow the checklist items to add up. For example, did your team find multiple fire extinguishers? If they found 5, make that five points toward the scavenger hunt checklist total. The most points at the end of a set amount of time, wins.

Hotel Photo Scavenger Hunt

Create a virtual scavenger hunt and split up but make sure each team has a smartphone. Instead of giving each player a hotel scavenger hunt list of items, allow them to use their smartphone for a hotel photo scavenger hunt

Play like this… “The first item is a pillow.” Each team has to race and take a picture of a pillow in a group text. This can be a pillow on the couch in the lobby or a pillow in the hotel room. In the same format, have the mediator text “the next item is a local map.” Each team will race to take a picture of a local map and text it to the group. The team that returns the first image to the group, wins that round. Continue on with fun items like

- room number
- fitness room
- red chair
- funny picture in the hallway
- vending machine item
- etc.

Use the scavenger hunt checklist of items to guide the moderator in this phone scavenger hunt game.

This game is so much fun for an older group of teens or young adults. Heck, even grannie and gramps will have a good time with this fast-paced fun game.

What are the rules for this resort treasure hunt?

Since a hotel treasure hunt is a public scavenger hunt, it’s essential to go over a few rules. Manors and teaming up are two of the most important scavenger hunt rules.

The indoor scavenger hunt rules are a combination of the hotel rules and your family rules. Make sure that the kids know that they shouldn’t be wandering around the hotel alone and to always be with an adult from their own family while looking for things. It’s important to also team up young kids and older kids.

Also, abide by the rules of the hotel that there is no running or disturbing the other guests! Have them take a pencil so that they can mark off the items as they find them!

Who is this Hotel Photo Scavenger Hunt for?

Kids: This printable PDF is really for all ages. Make sure that the littles pair up with the big kids or adults – and have a blast. It’s a great way to burn off extra energy before a slower-paced activity.

Teens: Even the tweens will join in on the fun! Just be sure to remind them of that no-running rule – as teens can get pretty competitive!

Adults: Absolutely! Adults love good friendly competition and the ability to gloat the rest of the trip. It’s always fun to pair an adult up with one of the kids!
