Photo Scavenger Hunt | This Time Of Mine

Photo scavenger hunts are an excellent way for kids to burn off some energy while being creative.

They can explore their photography skills, or they can see just how silly they can get. (Be sure to scroll down for fun ideas on how they can be in this scavenger hunt!)

This activity is also fun in groups.

WHAT YOU’LL NEED

Photo Scavenger Hunt
A camera, tablet or phone

That’s it!

Kids can do this on their own, inside or outside. Or they could bring you along for the fun. It’s up to you (and what you have going on that day).

Don’t want to print it out? That’s ok! Download it and use a phone or tablet.

Want to reuse the printable? Simply laminate it and use a dry erase marker.

HOW THE INDOOR SCAVENGER HUNT WORKS

For this scavenger hunt, kids take a picture of each item on the list. They can check them off as they find them.

Have them look for the items in the backyard, on a family walk, at a park, or even inside!

When they’re done, they’ll love looking through their pictures. They can even print them out and make an art project!

ALTERNATIVE IDEAS

Want to mix it up a little? Here are a few more ways to use this printable:

Make it a race. Kids can break into teams, each with their own copy, and see who can get done first.

Be in the photos! Each time kids find an item on their list, they can take a selfie with it or take a picture of a friend next to it.

Make it even more interactive. Challenge kids to take pictures of the items – while they do something silly with them.

Turn it into a video scavenger hunt. This is the same concept as above, but instead of still shots, it will be videos of them being silly with each item.
