What is a scavenger hunt?

A scavenger hunt is a game similar to a treasure hunt. Players collect or identify specific items, usually specified on a list or given in a series of clues. Players are given a list of items to find or collect. This collection can be a collection of similar things or a series of clue cards. There are two different types of scavenger hunt hunts…

A scavenger hunt can be casual or can be a timed race. It can be played individually or with a team. There are a few examples of how to declare a winner in a scavenger hunt…

Man vs clock: Each player races to beat another players time.
Man vs Man: Multiple players go at the same time. The winner finishes the race first.
Team vs Team: Players work together to finish their scavenger hunt before the other team finishes first.

At the end of a scavenger treasure hunt there is a prize. The first player to find or collect all the items on the list or complete the rhyming riddles wins the game. Examples of scavenger hunt prizes can include…

holiday gifts
birthday presents
party favors
small prizes
a series of items that lead to a larger clue (for example letters to unscramble)
candy

How to Prepare for a Scavenger Hunt

Decide on the area you will be searching. This could be your neighborhood, a local park, playground or even your own backyard. In this case, you’ll be doing the scavenger hunt in your neighborhood and by foot or car depending on your area.

Put together clues in the form of a checklist or clue cards. For example, in a scavenger hunt checklist, make a list of items for the players to find or collect. The list can be as simple or complex as you like. For example, at a Safari Themed Party, players might collect different animals found in the jungle that are hiding in the party venue.

If you are created ideas for scavenger hunt clues for kids, you want to have a consecutive list of places you want the kids to go. Then you offer clues so that they find that location.

An example of a scavenger hunt clue for kids is…

Check out the pathway on the side of the street. On the concrete is a clue for you to meet.

Start the scavenger hunt. Print out the cards or checklist, and choose the area of the neighborhood you’ll be working in.

What’s in this Neighborhood Scavenger Hunt?

For this neighborhood scavenger hunt printable set, there are actually two types of neighborhood scavenger hunt ideas to choose from: A checklist and rhyming riddles clue cards.

The first neighborhood treasure hunt is more descriptive and great for older kids or teenagers that can read and solve riddles. This could be used on your street or using a car scavenger hunt for a larger area. Second, there is also a list of items for younger kids. This would be used as a walking scavenger hunt and kids check off the list of items on their visual list.

Clue Cards

This scavenger hunt is great for older children, teens or even adults. Use rhyming riddles and go on a neighborhood walk scavenger hunt on foot or driving scavenger hunt as you locate different clues and ultimately find your prize.

To get started, cut the rhyming clue cards apart. Choose the scavenger hunt clue cards that are best for your neighborhood and plan your order. If you wish, you can add a number to the back of the card for ordering.

Since you are in a larger area, such as a neighborhood, create a boundary where clues can be found. To keep the clues in a larger area, write your own clues on the back. For example, use hints like this is at a house to the left of yours. This is at a flower bush four driveways from yours. Hide your cards in the appropriate spot but save the first card to start the hunt. You can play foot, bicycle, golf cart or car!

In our printable set, you’ll also find a page full of do not touch signs! These signs are great for when you don’t want anyone messing up your scavenger hunt and picking up a clue card before players have gotten to that riddle.

Checklist

The second photo scavenger hunt is ideal for preschoolers or younger children and kids. In this scavenger hunt list, participants can see the picture and from there they can look for the item in the picture. The scavenger hunt includes 16 items.

Example neighborhood checklist items include…

sprinkler
dog
flower
mailbox
airplane
stop sign

Once an items is found, you can use a circle sticker and cover the item (like these on Amazon) or just add a circle or X. This is not a checklist neighborhood hunt where you pick up the item – the neighbor might not like you carrying their dog home. LOL.

Teen are the best age group for birthday party games. They understand the rules, they are really competitive and the offer a good alternative to getting in trouble. The games have to be challenging enough to keep the teens engaged, but not so difficult that they get frustrated and give up. The key is to find games that are just the right mix of silly and challenging. That’s where we can help.

Planning Teen a Teen Party

If you’re planning a party for teens, the first step is to come up with a theme. Teens love a a good theme and themed parties don’t mean you have to get dressed up and decked out. It can be anything from a glow-in-the-dark party, pool party to a scavenger hunt.

Once your teen party theme idea is established, you want to get to planning. Here are a few basic steps for planning the actual party:

Choose a date and time

Teens tend to be busy, so it’s important to pick a date and time that works for everyone. The best times for teen birthday parties are in the afternoon or evening. Calculate the hours. How long can you busy a teen before they just go berserk!

You can see some of our favorite teen party digital invites (in our photo scavenger hunt blog post.)

Pick a location

The location of the party will depend on the theme. The games can take place inside out outside, just make sure you have enough room for movement.

Examples of teenage birthday part locations include…

Skating Ring
Movie Theater
Backyard
Public Park
Escape Room
Trampoline Park
Basketball Court
Go-Cart Track
Golf Course
Warehouse

You can save money on the party by hosting the at your house, in your backyard or at a local park. If it’s a public park, see if the county requires you to rent a pavilion for special occasions.

Decide on food and drinks

You simply cannot have a teen party without proper food and drinks. Ask the teenagers what their favorite snack foods are beforehand! However, if you are on the search for cheap food for a teenage party, buying pizza, drinks, and lots of candy and chips is likely enough. You might have fun adding in some cute birthday party foods that might involve a little more effort. Decide on party food that fits the them or set up some food stations like something you might have at a backyard movie night.

Example easy party food for teenagers include…

Pizza
Chips
Candy
Soda
Brownies
Tacos
Hotdogs
Chicken Wings
Cookies
Fruit
Popcorn

You can do this by passing it around, but you can only use your chin. The first team to drop the orange loses. This game causes you to get extra close… kind of like spin the bottle close only without kissing! This contest might not be best for a church youth group!

How to Play: For this game, split players into two teams. Get an orange and sit everyone in a circle, or stand in a line. The game is simple: you need to put the orange under the chin of the first person, who must then pass it to the next person and place it under their chin, without using hands. First team to finish, wins.

Supplies: Oranges.

Donuts on a String

This kids game is sure to bring out the laughter. You’ll need some donuts and string for this one. The object of the game is to eat the donut without using your hands. The first person to finish their donut wins! Prizes include extra donuts or just the declaration of being the winner!

How to Play: Tie the string on the donuts (one for each guest) and hang them from a clothes line, curtain rod or anything that is available. Each player stands beneath a single donut. On the mark of ‘go’ the players begin to eat their donuts using only their mouth. The first player to finish their doughnut wins.

Supplies: Donuts, string, something to hang from.

Lawn Twister

This is a classic game with a twist. All you need is some spray paint, an open space, and maybe a tarp. Play the game everyone loves, but outside! This game is tons of fun and brings back the childhood nostalgia. You can twist it up by adding some shaving cream to each circle. Try not to slip! Now this is one of those teenage party fun games everyone will love!

How to Play: Use spray paint to paint the various circles needed to play the popular lawn Twister game. You can use the twister board from the board game or just have caller who calls out various commands. If you have enough space inside, you can spread a piece of tarp and paint the colored circles on a piece of tarp.

Supplies: Twister mat, twister board, tarp, spray paint.

Marshmallow Pong

This is a take on beer pong, but non-alcoholic. You’ll need some plastic cups and instead of ping pong balls, use marshmallows. The goal is to bounce the marshmallow into the other team’s cup. If they catch it, you get a point.

How to Play: This fun teen game is played like adult beer pong, only teen-friendly, with marshmallows. Line Six cups in a pyramid or triangle shape on opposite sides of a table/area.

There is no winner. Everyone is a winner for eating the prize – marshmallows.

Indoor Scavenger Hunt for Kids

This indoor treasure hunt is perfect for snowy, hot or rainy days… or use anytime! Instantly print your indoor scavenger hunt digital download now.

Rainy days or summer heat slowing you down? Not anymore! Entertain the kids at home with a printable indoor scavenger hunt with clues. The kids will love it and you’ll have a great time helping guide them as they read each clue to solve the rhyming riddle.

Indoor Scavenger Hunt

Kids love scavenger hunts but not all scavenger hunts can be done without leaving the home. This one’s great indoors. It’s fast-paced, fun and only a little bit challenging. Kids get to discover a lot about their homes and utilize some teamwork as they race to solve clues and discover fun prizes.

How to Set Up a Kids Scavenger Hunt for Indoors

Scavenger hunts do not have to be challenging. If you have a printer, you can have your own treasure hunt with just the click of a print button. To get started, you’ll need to download you files and print them out on your color printer. To make the cards more sturdy, consider using cardstock if you have it on hand.

The next step is to prep for the scavenger hunt by cutting the clue cards apart, and deciding which cards you’ll use. You can just use the ones that work best for your home, use less to make the hunt easier for younger kids, or use all 20 to extend the fun. The printable set includes blank cards so you can custom the scavenger hunt for your family or occasion too!

Set out the clues in the order you want the kids to find them and keep the first clue to hand to the players when you explain the game. You’ll have the scavenger hunt list answer key, in case anyone gets stuck on a house clue.

Once you have everything ready, it’s time to start the fun!

How do you start a scavenger hunt?

Before you begin a scavenger hunt with clue cards, you need to hide each clue card. Do yourself a favor and write the number on the back of the card. You can also use the answer key we provided and keep the same order we already have. Once the cards are in order, hide them in the correct spots. If a clue card reads

“A clock can tell time, a pencil can write. What utensil do you use, to take a really big bite?.”

That means the next clue card should be hidden in the utensil drawer.

Practice the scavenger hunt so you can make sure you did not make mistakes when setting it up.

To start a scavenger hunt at home, keep your first clue card. You can read it aloud to your children or hand it over to your the players to read themselves. At this point, the players are on their own as they begin the challenge. You can be there for support if they are stumped on one of the fun riddles.

What are some good scavenger hunt clues?

Good scavenger hunt clues are just a tad bit challenging. That means to you they may seem like easy clues (or very obvious), but you want your child to scream out the answer as if they were so excited to quickly get the clue puzzles correct.

Example clues for an indoor scavenger hunt include…

You fill me up, then drain me when done. Adding lots of bubbles, always makes me more fun.

I have a round knob and also a lock. Visitors and salesman may give me a knock.

At this point, you might be tempted to stop. Keep going and look in the place at night you will plop.

All of these riddles are found inside our indoor scavenger hunt set.

What are some good scavenger hunt prizes?

While prizes are required, it certainly is fun to have a reward of some sort at the end of the scavenger hunt. It can be as simple as screen time tickets or a fun snack you make together.

Some kids scavenger hunt treasures include…

Candy
Snacks
Screen Time
Money
Treasure Chest with Chocolate Gold Coins
Small Toys
Incentive Coupons
Gift Cards

You can hide a prize with each card or keep the big prize for the end of the treasure hunt with the last clue card.

What are some scavenger hunt variations?

If you are looking for some scavenger hunt ideas, try variations on how to play. One way to play is to have the kids work together in teams. This can be a lot of fun, especially if you make a rule that the first team to find all the clues, or the team with the most points at the end, wins a prize.

If you have younger children playing, you might want to consider having an adult or older kid help each team. This way everyone can join in on the fun, and no one feels left out.

Another variation is to have a time limit. This adds a bit of extra pressure and really gets the kids excited as they try to beat the clock.

If you want to play again, or use the same scavenger hunt clues for a different occasion, you can always mix up the order of the clues. This way, even if the kids remember where some of the clues were hidden, they’ll still have to search high and low to find them all as they have no idea what clue will be next.

Which every scavenger hunt idea you choose, have fun and make your day a great one!

Of course when hosting a party with those over 21, drinking often comes into casual gatherings. Take a look at these easy drinking game ideas for adults.

Fun Drinking Ideas

If you are looking for some common drinking game ideas, take a look at these fun ideas for adult parties.

Drunk Jenga

Jenga is a classic game that’s perfect for a night of drinking. For Jenga drinking game block ideas, write down different tasks on each block before you build your tower and start playing. If you pull out a block with a task, you have to complete the task. Not all Jenga blocks need tasks but they can have them. Example ideas include

Guys drink
Girls drink
No one drink for 3 minutes
Take a group photo
Skip your next turn
Beards drink
You can no longer take pieces from the center of the rows
Rock paper scissors with the person to your left – loser drinks
Compliment someone
Reverse direction

You will need a Hasbro Jenga Game to do this idea.

Never Have I Ever

This is always a fun game to play when alcohol is involved. Players take turns making statements about things they’ve never done. If anyone in the group has done what you said, they drink. For example never have I ever statements include

Never have I ever been arrested.
Never have I ever stolen anything
Never have I ever called an ex when drunk
Never have I ever skinny dipped
Never have I ever cheated on someone
Never have I ever been on TV
Never have I ever lied about my age
Never have I ever spied on my neighbors
Never have I ever had more than one date in a day
Never have I ever forged my parents signature

Truth or Drink

Similar to truth or dare, only with alcohol. This is a fun do or drink game that gets everyone involved. To play, each person writes down 10 dares on small pieces of paper. Fold them up and put them in a hat. Players take turns drawing a dare from the hat and either completing the dare or taking a drink. Examples drinking game questions include…

Who are you most jealous of?
How much money is in your bank account?
Are you where you want to be in life?
What’s the longest you’ve gone without a shower?
Who broke up your last relationship?
What was your most embarrassing moment?
What’s the wildest thing you’ve ever done?
If you had 24 hours to live, what would you do?
What’s the last thing you searched on your phone?
Have you pretended to be sick to get out of plans?

The more outrageous the dares, the better!

Some parties are just better when planned ahead. While these games are really fun, they sometimes are overplayed.

What are some fun Drinking Games?

When you’re a college student, few things can compare to the excitement of a 21st birthday. And doing a few rounds of drinking games is always a blast. You’re finally turning the big 2-1, so it’s time to get the party started! These drinking games are perfect for your 21st birthday… or really any birthday beyond 21. They’re easy to play, don’t require too much setup and are sure to get everyone laughing.

When putting these adult drinking ideas together we had a few ideas in mind… MAKE IT LOW-COST and MAKE IT UNIQUE! SO that is just want this is. Fun and unique party games that stray away from the tradition. Plus these drinking party games for adults won’t break the bank allowing you to spend money other places…like alcohol.

Best of all, you can easily adapt if you do not drink. The games are fun and silly and can easily be substituted with a non-alcoholic beverage… you promise the laughter will still ensue.

I’m Going to a Bar

To play this game, all you need is a group of people and some alcohol. Start by going around the circle and each person says, “I’m going to a bar and I’m going to buy…” then what drink they’re going to buy.

The next person does the same but adds their adult beverage to the list. Each person takes a turn as it goes around the circle. If you forget one of the drinks, you’re out.

The catch is, you can’t say the same drink twice. So, if someone says they’re going to buy a vodka and cranberry, the next person can’t say they’re buying a vodka and cranberry. The player is out. The last person left is the winner!

Cup Swap

To play this game, you need at least 4 people, cups, and some spoons. The players will hurry to scoop the cocktail into an empty cup using a spoon before the timer runs out. Whatever is left after the 1 minute timer goes off, they drink.

Prosecco Pong

This is a classic drinking game with a fun 21st birthday twist! You’ll need ping pong balls, enough cups to set up in the shape of a triangle for both teams, and prosecco. Teams take turns bouncing their ping pong ball into the other team’s pyramid of cups. Once the ball lands in a cup, the prosecco is drunk by the team who’s cup it landed in. The first team to eliminate all of the other team’s cups wins!

Adapt with beer or a non-drinking game option is to use empty cups and marshmallows as ping-pong balls.

Flip it or Sip it

Using a coin, players will take turns flipping the coin and calling out what side they think it will land on. If they’re right, the other player drinks. If they’re wrong, they drink. Simple as that!

Junk in the Trunk

In this fun minute to win it game, fill an empty tissue box with ping-pong balls. The fun doesn’t end there. Tie that box around a players waist and see if they can get all the balls out of the box in one minute. Might be fun to blast the tunes to Taylor Swift’s Shake it Off!

Defy Gravity

This balloon game see how long you can keep 3, 4, 5 balloons in there air. The participant that keeps the balloons up the longest is the winner. Keep adding balloons as you go.

Roll-On Buddy

This is a fun and silly game. It causes your guests to get on the floor. So if you are the host, make sure to give it a good cleaning before your guests and birthday guy or gal arrive. Players will roll an egg across the floor without using their hands. Noses only!

Medusa

In this traditional drinking game, Jell-O shots are a must! All the players get in a circle and look down. When they look up, you must make eye contact with a player. If you make eye contact with the same player who made eye contact with you, you yell “Medusa” and take a shot. Play until the shots are all gone.

Donut on a String

This fun kids game is even more fun when played with adults… and maybe a little alcohol. Tie donuts to a string and see if you can get your donut eaten the fastest. No hands!

Straight Face

Definitely add this game closer to the end of the night. It will be even harder to keep a straight face. In this verbal drinking game, everyone writes down a phrase on a piece of paper. It can be ridiculous, inappropriate or just outright silly. The player will draw a phrase from the pile and attempt to say the phrase without smiling, giggling or laughing.

Pass the Orange

This fun ice breaker game causes you to get up close and personal. Split players into two teams. Line up all players within the team. Starting with the first player, players must pass an orange on down the line. The trick is, the orange must be under your neck and no hands can be used. I hope you don’t prefer your personal space!

Donuts & Cocktail Sticks

If you thought the donut game on ta string was fun, try this fun activity. Pass donuts on down a line using cocktail sticks. Similar to pass the orange only adding a few other game supplies. See if your team can beat the opposing team in time.

Titanic

What did the Titanic do, sink! In this fun beer game, place an empty shot glass on top of beer sot hat it floats. Slowly add liquor into the shot glass. When the shot glass sinks, the player drinks it. This creates a DIY Irish Car Bomb and might be best played with Irish whiskey, Baileys Irish cream and Guinness.

Worm Search

This messy game brings you to childhood but is really fun! Hide a gummy worm (or more) in a whipped cream pie. On the start of go, players search their whipped cream pie and pull out gummy worms one by one. The player that gets the most in time, wins. Laughter guaranteed.

Bite the Bag

How low can you go? View this game as a twist on the limbo. Don’t worry, there’s no pole dancing in this fun activity. Start with a brown paper bag. The first round is easy. Players must bend over and pick it up with their mouth. Slowly cut the bag back and do the same thing – bend over and pick up the bag with your mouth. Continue the bag game and cut the bag back each round. See who can go the lowest when the brown bag is extra short.

Two Truths & A Lie

In this classic game, you share a little bit about yourself. It’s a great ice breaker drinking game. Each player will take a turn and tell three facts about themselves. Two facts are true, one is a lie. The rest of the players must try to guess your bluff or the lie.

Mrs. or Mr. Freeze

Declare a Mr, or Mrs. Freeze at the beginning of the night. When the mister or misses freezes, everyone in the room must freeze too. The last person to freeze, takes a sip of their drink or a shot. You can play this game all night long. I bet it gets harder as the night goes on!

Heads Up!

This game will only get worse as the night continues… Download the Heads Up App from Ellen DeGeneres to your cellphone. Hold the phone device to your forehead and try to discover the word you are holding up. Your teammates can give you hints like its’ an animal, it has 4 legs, it hibernates. You can also ask questions as you try to figure out the word before times up. Categories might be famous people, movies, TV shows, animals, and more.

Enjoy these adult birthday party games perfect for a 21st birthday party celebration or any ‘ole occasion!

Cheers to a great night!

There are tons of different games you can play in and around the water. Whether you’re looking for an idea for a crowd or just want to have some fun with your family, we’ve got you covered.

Water Games for the Lake

When it comes to the lake, we know the one thing all lakes have in common… water! There are so many traditional water games that are great to share with the kiddos. Here’s a list of a few of our favorites you’ll want to give a try.

What are some good water games for the lake?

If you are looking for a list of fun water games for the lake, take a look at a few of these examples.

1. Marco Polo: This classic game is a great way to get everyone moving and enjoying the water. To play, one person is “it” and closes their eyes while counting to 20. This is a perfect pool game if you have one!

The other players swim around and yell “Marco” when they’re close to the person who is “it”. The goal is for the person who is “it” to tag another player. If they’re successful, that player becomes “it” for the next round.

2. Water Balloon Toss: This water game is perfect for a hot day! All you need is a water balloon for each player and a way to keep score.

To play, players stand in a line and toss the balloon to the person behind them. If the balloon pops, that player is out. The last person standing is the winner!

3. Duck, Duck, Goose: This game is a childhood favorite for a reason! To play, one person is “it” and walks around the circle of players tapping each person on the head while saying “duck”.

When they tap someone and say “goose”, that player must chase them around the circle. If the player who is “it” makes it all the way around without getting caught, they stay “it”! Make it a refreshing game by dumping a cup of water over their head when you say “goose”.

4. Cannon Ball / Belly Flop Contest: If you love a good challenge, who can make the biggest splash with their front end or back end might be a fun game. This funny game is especially great with some ~~drunk~~ dads that hate to loose.

Some of these games are not cheap and might be a good investment if you are hosting an Air B&B or putting together activities for a rental property.
