Fall Scavenger Hunt

HERE is the link to a fun fall scavenger hunt.
We did ours here at home. They used the yard, woods, and some neighbors yards, and were able to find almost everything, as well as complete the listening activity.
I had them write and sketch in their nature journals as well.
I love THIS link for nature study/outdoor challenge activities. I have bought several of the e-books and love them.
Unfortunately I took no pictures...had camera issues that day.
But it was just as well...I got lots of cleaning done while they were enjoying a beautiful day outdoors!
I gave out prizes (Japanese erasers...my kids love those things.) not only for finding what they needed to find, but for cooperating, not fighting, talking and listening to each other, and treating each other with respect. How they worked together was just as important to me as how well they completed the tasks.
Hope some of you enjoy the scavenger hunt as much as we did!
Happy Hunting!!!
