Frequently asked questions
How do I run this hunt for a group or party?
Print one copy per child (or per team of two) and add a clipboard and pencil each — the "official equipment" feeling doubles the engagement. First to finish calls out; everyone else gets five bonus minutes to complete their list.
Where can we play this scavenger hunt?
The list is written for ordinary places — around the house, the backyard, a walk to the park — so no setup is needed. Read the list together first so younger kids know what they're hunting for, then let them lead.
What age is the Safari Scavenger Hunt for?
It's aimed at kids ages 5–8 — enough detail to be interesting without being fiddly. Younger siblings can join in with help, and the range is a guide, not a gate: match the child, not the label.
