Scavenger Hunt?

Question

me and my friend are planning an outdoor scavenger hunt around the neighborhood and we were wanting ideas as to what to find. Can anyone help us out?

Answer 1

a blue plastic egg, 6 twigs, any pink flower, the hair from a poodle, the number '4', taken off a house (return it later), a shovel, the cap from a lawnmower, and one item of black clothing taken off a clothes line...how's that? Do I get the 10 points???

Answer 2

That really depends on your neighbourhood. I'm thinking of a the type of scavenger hunt where you get a clue and then have to find the next clue, NOT the type of hunt where you collect a lot of things. In my area, I would have people look for

- a weeping willow
- monkey bars
- the sign for the street that translates to "Linda's House"
- a monkey puzzle tree
- a white picket fence

Answer 3

I did a picture scavenger hunt once and took pictures of distinct people...like the old lady with the horribly decorated shirt, bad fake bake, bad die job, is that a man or a woman, sweat pants in public, etc...it was a lot of fun.

Answer 4

Is this for adults or kids? For kids just do the usuall things. Find a brown leaf,a feather, a colored rock,etc. For adults go a bit tougher. Find a lighter,find an address and describe the house,get a local celeb's autograph,etc.

Answer 5

If you are going door to door ask for any possible but silly thing - a peanut butter sandwich, bandaid, a plastic bag, etc. Nothing that needs to be returned or is dangerous or expensive. i used to love these but be careful - if you live in a good neighborhod, have fun. but if there is any danger there then forget it. Go in groups of at least 4 people and don't accept any invitations to go inside. sorry, but's this is good advice these days.

Answer 6

go for random things...a red paperclip, a penny with a certain year, toothpicks, balloons, easter eggs...basically anything could work.
