Scavenger Hunts are always a big success on trail and around camp. They can be used to introduce a new lesson or state standard or they can be used to get kids using their senses and becoming aware of what's around them. They are a perfect addition to your bag of tricks for experiential education at it's finest.
Scavenger Hunt Guru is a great resource that includes outdoor scavenger hunt ideas to spice up your next hiking group.
Looking for a great first day on trail activity? Tired of playing the classic rock, paper, scissors game? My favorite is always a nature scavenger hunt to create awareness. You can even create your own outdoor hunt with this scavenger hunt list.
