Road Trip Scavenger Hunt

Road Trip Scavenger Hunt

Keeping the kids busy in the car is a lot easier than when we were growing up, no? Between game systems, tablets, e-readers, audio books and movies, it’s easier to get fewer and fewer complaints of “I’m bored!” Of course, when it is uttered, we all have a long story of “Let me tell you what it means to be bored. When I was growing up….”

While your kids might have plenty of resources for staying distracted in the car, we wanted to provide you with some newer ideas to keep their minds fresh, to keep family engaged, and to just go back to some of the original “old school” resources of a paper and pencil.

Road Trip Games for the Car

Before embarking on a road trip (Or any travel for that matter), I try to pick up at least one or two new items. This often includes road trip games. Having something that is new 1.) buys time learning the game 2.) kills time enjoying the game 3.) and often gets reused because it was … well, enjoyable.

How to Play Road Trip Scavenger Hunt

We created a collection of Printable Scavenger Hunts for Kids, but one thing that was missing was a Road Trip Scavenger Hunt. Take a look at this printable game as well as Road Trip Games in the car for the kids.

Our road trip scavenger hunt is general enough, it can be played on most any adventure. You can make the game your own identifying your family’s rules and directions or follow these directions for how to a play road trip scavenger hunt.

Directions

Each player gets their own printable game board. Set the game for a certain amount of time (30 minutes, one hour, the entire trip.) As you travel down the road, check off items you see on your journey. You must identify the object out loud before checking it off. Once that object has been identified by the first player, the same object cannot be used to check off another players box. They will need to find that same object in another place. For example, if player A finds a deer they announce “deer” and check it off on their scavenger hunt printable. All other players must wait to find another deer before they can check it off. The first person to check off all their scavenger hunt boxes wins or the  person with the most checks at the end of the time limit, is the winner.

I suggest you laminate your printable. This will allow you to check the boxes with a dry erase marker and then wipe off with a wet paper towel to reuse. It also will keep the printable in the car sturdy and keep it form getting dirty or wrinkled.

I have had my Scotch Thermal Laminator for 12 years and it still is going strong. I suggest this brand though there are many other great laminators on Amazon.

Rainbow Scavenger Hunt to Teach Toddlers Their Colors

This rainbow scavenger hunt will help you toddlers learn to identify colors and keep them entertained! Download many free scavenger hunt ideas for kids, preschoolers, and more.

Rainbow Scavenger Hunt to Teach Toddlers Their Colors

Recognizing colors is an important skill that kids can learn as early as 2 or 3 years old. It’s typically one of the first things parents teach their children, along with shapes and letters. Colors will be taught in preschool and kindergarten, but you can start exposing your child to the names of colors long before they head off to class.

One of the easiest ways to help your children identify colors and know color names is by pointing them out in their environment. When you go to the park, mention how green the grass is, or how white the puffy clouds are in the sky. Point out a blue or red car. If you take your child grocery shopping, they can find a number of different colors just within the produce aisle.

Learning opportunities are really all around us every single day!

Rainbow Scavenger Hunt – Teaching Toddlers Their Colors

A great indoor scavenger hunt that we have put together involves finding the colors of the rainbow inside your home. This is the perfect activity for a rainy day when it’s too miserable to play outside. You will still want to entertain your toddler, and with this free printable scavenger hunt, they learn while having fun!

Print the scavenger hunt when you are ready to play with your toddler. You can leave it as a full sheet or cut it up into cards to make them smaller for your little one’s hands. Read and follow the directions on each card to have your child roaming around the house looking for colors!

Rainbow Scavenger Hunt Printable Game - Scavenger Hunt Ideas for Kids

The following instructions are on this free rainbow scavenger hunt:

  • Find something in your bedroom that is red
  • Something in the toy box that is orange
  • Find something in the kitchen that is yellow
  • Something outside that is green
  • Find something in your closet that is blue
  • Something on a shelf that is purple
  • Find something in a drawer that is pink
  • Something on the floor that is brown
  • Find something in the living room that is black
  • Something in the bathroom that is white

Making this Scavenger Hunt Printable More Fun

Each time you play this game with your toddler, encourage them to find new things that are the color you are looking for. You can also mix it up, such as finding something in the toy box that is blue and something in the closet that’s orange. This keeps the game fresh so they are always learning new places to find their colors.

The more exposure you give them to color names, the faster they will catch on!

It won’t be long before your little one will be able to tell you the colors of things: balls, cars, food, etc. And if you ever want to give rewards, try giving them an M&M of the right color once they find it in the game!

Looking for an adventure on your camping trip? Print out this camping scavenger hunt printable set for a fun activity for families with kids of all ages!

Camping Scavenger Hunt Printable

For those of you who enjoy a little bit of adventure on your camping trips, we have the perfect game for you: Camping Scavenger Hunt! This activity will help break up the monotony of a campout and give everyone something to do.

We’ve included some printables that can be used as clues in our scavenger hunt, as well as some riddles that may stump you along the way – but they’re all great fun. The best part is that this game can be adjusted to suit any age group or skill level, so it’s perfect for families with children of varying ages!

How to plan a camping scavenger hunt

Before the camping trip

  • Download and print out the camping scavenger hunt printables on cardstock.
  • Look over the clue cards and decide which ones work best for your group or family. Don’t forget to consider your location and what’s available where you’ll be camping.
  • Plan which order you want the treasure hunt riddles to be in according to your campsite, then add the number to the back of the clues.
  • On the clues and answers page, make a mark through any clues you don’t end up using so there’s no confusion later.
  • Print out however many “do not touch” labels you need on computer paper or adhesive label paper.
  • Attach the labels to the flat side of envelopes, setting clue one aside.

When you arrive at the campsite

Once you get to the campsite, double check your riddles and locations so setting up the game is quick and easy. You’ll want to take something like thin nails and a small hammer or even thumbtacks and tape that won’t leave residue to attach the clues to various surfaces.

It’s important to remove the tape, nails or tacks after the game is over so you can leave nature the way you found it.

Camping scavenger hunt rules

Read the first clue off and encourage the group to solve the scavenger hunt riddles together.

Once the riddle is solved, the group should head to the location(s) they think the clues are pointing to. When the group finds a clue, read it aloud, work to solve it together, then move on to solving the next one until they are done and the last envelope is found.

When you’re done hunting for treasures, take down any cards you haven’t used (or that weren’t found) so other campers don’t find them by accident and spend too much time trying to figure out what they are.

More fun camping activities

If you need more activities after your group completes the scavenger hunt, there are plenty of other activities for your next camping trip!

  • Sing campfire songs: Make up silly lyrics to some old favorites
  • Make s’mores: I mean, if you don’t make s’mores on a camping trip, did you really even camp?
  • Night Hide and Seek:  When the sun goes down and the night sky appears, play Flashlight Tag
  • Photos: Take photos of your group on each day and post them on social media using #campingselfie. You may want to take pictures during the adventure as well that can be used later for scrapbooking adventures together – what’s more fun than looking back at how much fun you had when it was over?
  • Camping Journal: Make a camping journal for the kids on the trip to keep fun notes in, draw things they see, and write about their favorite moments.

Plan the perfect beer tasting party with these fun adult party games that will have your party guests laughing and having a great time and making new friends.

Best Adult Drinking Games for a Beer Tasting Party

A good party is all about having fun and drinking beer. After all, beer is the most popular alcoholic beverage in the world! Without it there would be no adult parties or drinking games to enjoy. In this blog post we will discuss some of the best beer drinking games you can play at your next party that are sure to make everyone have a great time!

What is a Beer Tasting Party?

A beer tasting party is a gathering where everyone brings a type of beer to share. These are often planned by people who want to explore the tastes and styles of different types of beers.

In order for this event not to be too tough on anyone’s taste buds, it is best if there are a variety of different kinds available so that guests can sample them all without worrying about not liking the few that were offered by one host.

When hosting a cheers & beers party, download a beer tasting notes PDF. Compare colors, clarity, aroma, flavor, appearance, mouthfeel and more. You can even give it a score of one to five stars beers.

What Are Some Drinking Games To Play At A Beer Tasting Party?

Gather up your supplies and plan some fun drinking games to entertain your party guests. Some beer party games include:

I’m Going to a Bar– A new take on the childhood game, “Going on a Bear Hunt” players sit in a circle and take turns saying different drinks that they would get from the bar. Each person repeats the list and adds another drink to the list.

Straight Face– This funny game tests your willpower to not laugh while reading ridiculous statements party guests write.

Defy Gravity– Keep your balloons in the air with this one-handed challenge. The last team with all their balloons in play, wins!

Pass the Orange– Ever try passing an orange with no hands? This crazy game tests your skills at passing fruit around the circle without dropping it.

Name that Quote- This game can be adapted to use movie quotes, songs, titles of shows or anything that works well with the friend group you’ve invited over.

Charades– A boozy spin on the classic game, write down funny actions or things that will get your guests acting and laughing.

Beer Pong– What’s a beer tasting party without beer pong? Set up the cups and watch the party come to life with this game of skill that gets harder the more you drink.

Donuts & Cocktail Sticks– Work as a team to get as many donuts into your team’s bucket before time runs out. The twist? No hands. You can only pass the donuts with the cocktail stick that’s in your mouth.

Two Truths and a Lie– This getting to know you game is perfect for the beginning of the evening, especially as you’re waiting for other guests to arrive.

Mr. & Mrs. Freeze– This game can be played throughout the party to add a fun twist to the evening. Guests have to pay attention or drink up!

Heads up– Download the Heads Up app and play the fun guessing game.
