How to Create a Nature Scavenger Hunt for Kindergarten Kids

Scavenger hunts are a fun way to get little ones moving and learning outdoors. Here’s how to create the perfect one for kindergarten-aged kids:

Step 1: Keep It Simple

Stick to easy-to-spot items, like “a green leaf” or “a rock.” Younger kids thrive on achievable tasks.

Step 2: Add Educational Elements

Include simple questions: “Can you find something that smells nice?” This engages their senses and adds learning.

Step 3: Make It Safe

Explain boundaries and keep an eye on the group to ensure everyone stays safe.
