Let's get outside! Whether you and your kiddos are playing in your backyard, walking the dog, or out on nature trails, our outdoor scavenger hunt printable is sure to add some fun to your outing!  

A nature scavenger hunt is a great way to keep kids busy on a mission while exploring the outdoors.

Here's how to do it:

1. Download our free outdoor scavenger hunt printable and print one for each child.

2. Instruct your kids to find everything on the nature scavenger hunt list.

3. And if it's too cold for an item or two, use it as an opportunity to explain why.  For example, butterflies are cold blooded and need their wings to be warm in order to fly. 

Kids too young to read? Don’t worry! We've added some pictures to our outdoor scavenger hunt printable to make it easier for younger hunters!
