Instructions

      Before you set out on your walk, determine where you want to go and create your treasure hunt list.

    • 2

      In the notebook(s), make a list of around 10-12 things that you would expect to see on your walk. Make your list specific to where you are going. If you are going to the beach, you would put things like, "Seagull, sailboat, etc."

      Draw a box next to each item. Give the notebook(s) to your kid(s) and set out on your walk. As the kids find things on their lists, they check them off. When their lists are all checked off, give them their reward.
