Whether you’re on a long road trip, on a walk through nature or visiting your local zoo, a scavenger hunt is a perfect way to keep little ones entertained. A photo scavenger hunt helps spark creativity and curiosity, giving kids a chance to explore and understand their surroundings. 

All you’ll need to get started is a camera or smartphone, something to write with, and the scavenger hunt list for that location. 

Choose a theme from the 10 creative scavenger hunt printables below, varying from the zoo to the beach or even your own backyard. The best part is you can play pretty much anywhere.

Then, briefly explain the scavenger hunt rules below:

1. Choose your location and theme
2. Assign someone to be the judge
3. Decide if you want to break into teams (in each team, pair kids with adults)

5. Set a timer (an hour is plenty of time)
6. Award the winner a fun prize

Photo scavenger hunts are the perfect rainy day (or sunny day) activity to keep your kids busy and entertained for hours.
