15 Nature Items to Start Your Outdoor Scavenger Hunt List

Take advantage of the nice, sunny weather this summer to plan a scavenger hunt for your homeschool family. Compile a list of items likely to be found in your area and have your child either collect each item or take a picture of it if you’d rather not have a collection of outdoor items in your home. The possibilities of what you and your children can find and observe are endless, but the more items you put on the list, the longer the scavenger hunt will last, possibly continuing all summer. To get started, use our printable scavenger hunt checklist and simply add your own!
