Our Halloween scavenger
hunt for kids aged 8 to 12. Designed for a house party/neighborhood. Pictures,
word scramble/find items, puzzle collection and fun and creative projects (most
with a Halloween theme). |
OVERVIEW: This
Halloween Scavenger Hunt is chock full of creative and imaginative activities
to keep your kids very busy for about 3 hours. It will work in any house
but it's best to have access to a yard and a neighborhood if possible just
to expand the playing area so the kids don't get in each other's way. They’ll
start by donning a team costume and creating their team haunted house. The
hunt is then broken down into 4 parts: Photo challenges (10); Spooky Scramble
where the kids will need to unscramble words (15), find the item and add it
to their haunted house; a puzzle to put together (the pieces of which are found
by following a series of riddle clues); and a project to complete to end the
hunt.
CUSTOMIZE THIS GAME: All our games are formatted
in Microsoft Word which means you can EASILY edit them to personalize them
if you so choose (they're also ready to go as is). You'll find some nice ideas
on our testimonial
pages.
Examples:
The full scavenger hunt will have detailed instructions
and other options/alternatives to consider if you don’t like or can’t
use the challenges as designed.
- Photo Challenges: Take a picture of your entire team with
candy corn fangs. ***50 bonus points if you can get a neighbor to join
in the fun*** (Don't have a neighbor to call on? Eliminate
the bonus point part of the challenge or change from a neighbor to an adult
attending the party. See how easy it is to edit?)
- Spooky Scramble: Unscramble this word “TSGOH” then
find it and tape it to your haunted house. (You can provide
magazines for the kids to look through to find a ghost or plant an image
of a ghost somewhere in your playing area.)
NUMBER
OF TEAMS or PARTICIPANTS: Unlimited; 4 to 8 kids
per team.
What
if you only have a few kids participating in this Halloween scavenger
hunt? Instead of dividing
them into teams, you can keep them all on one team and have them
race against the clock, giving the single team a time limit to complete
each section of the hunt, report back to you and bribe you for the
next section and so on until the hunt is complete.
AGE RANGE: Age
8 to 12.
LENGTH
OF THE HUNT: About 3 hours.
PRE-HUNT
PREP TIME: For up to 6 teams, you can put this
scavenger hunt together in about 6 hours (includes
shopping for supplies, reading the scavenger hunt and prepping the materials);
as you add teams, you'll need to add time to the pre-hunt prep. You mostly
need to print (and perhaps edit) the
documents included with the kit, pack the collection bags and you'll need
to shop for team prizes, digital
cameras as well as other supplies like costume pieces, clipboards and
arts and craft type items easily and inexpensively found at Dollar Stores. Our
facilitator guide provides a supply checklist for you.
