I put on my Fun Mom pants and made a scavenger hunt for the Sand Creek Trail. We had friends visiting from KC, and a gorgeous day to play with.
Each kid got a pack with: a list of things to find, a bandaid, paper and crayons for rubbings, a pencil, snacks and bug juice for fuel, and a candy necklace because you know sometimes you gotta just keep going and you don't have time to actually stop and unwrap your sugar. The lollipop wasn't in the bag and was a prize at the end.
A girl could get lost in there...
The reading of the rules...
Quiet, steady, and determined as always...
Trailing behind and already 3/4 of the way through her necklace...
"Seeds," check...
Buzz chose this for "something you think is beautiful"....
"a bug," check...
We dumped out our loot and checked our lists.
A really really good time!
If you visit Sand Creek Trail and want to give it a try, get in touch with me and I will send you a pdf of the list. Or you could just be like McCage and go solid for sticks!
