Have a Scavenger Hunt

Organizing a scavenger hunt around your house or yard can be fun and engaging for family and friends. Begin by selecting a theme that excites participants, such as a nature hunt, a treasure quest, or a mystery-solving adventure. Design a fun list of things to find or do, ensuring they are age-appropriate and varied in difficulty. Hide clues or objects in creative spots, like under a plant, inside a shoe, or taped to the underside of a table.

The game gets more exciting when you include riddles or puzzles that lead to the next clue. You can use household items like books, toys, or kitchen utensils to make the hunt more enjoyable. Set clear boundaries and safety guidelines if the hunt extends into the yard.

Finally, offer small prizes or treats to the participants who complete the hunt. This will motivate them and make the experience memorable and rewarding.

Rather than panic and hysteria (OK, maybe a little) Mike found himself carried away on the adventure of his life. Mike started with the best job he ever had working at Home Depot. He spent 8 years working with job seekers at a local workforce center, helping them to find employment. He then started his own company developing courses, writing books and urging others to follow their own paths into the future. Mike holds a Master of Arts in Adult Education and Training and a Bachelor of Business Management, earned through the University of Phoenix and an AAS degree in Electronics Systems Technology from the Community College of the Air Force.
