Boogs and I decided to go to the park on Sunday morning. We sat down together and came up with a list of things we thought Boogs might be able to capture with his camera. On his list were: bird, dog, insect, the colors of the rainbow, a smooth stone, an unusual shape, a playscape, a bumpy tree, water, and a naturally formed letter.
Then, Boogs was off on his photo scavenger hunt. He looked so cute trying to find every thing on his list.
Here is what he found:
Animals/Insects: birds, dog, butterfly, and bee.
Colors: red, green, pink, purple
Textures/Shape: letter "Y" in tree roots, unusual blue shaped swing (looks like an alien from this angle), bumpiest tree, smooth stone, water, water drops.
Boogs had a wonderful time on this scavenger hunt. Then we spent another hour or so on the playground and trails.
Thanks, Time To Craft, for the great idea.

Thanks, Kriss. I got the idea from Time to Craft. It is great to see that others enjoy it too.
DeleteThanks for another great way to combine learning and outdoor fun.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the kind comment. I was lucky to find the idea for this at Time To Craft.
DeleteI love your list *busily scribbles down ideas* and Boogs photos are brilliant! It is fascinating to see the world from their angle. Here's to many more photo scavenger hunts.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the inspiration Cheryl!
DeleteWasn't it a great idea. It was one that really appealed to me too and I have also said I fully intend to copy. Great that you had a peep at some of the other posts and found a good idea to try yourself, That is so what Country Kids is all about. Boogs did really well and I love the way you have grouped the photos together, I'm still wondering how to work this one myself with so many children and not enough cameras, but I'm determined to have a go too. Thanks for linking up and sharing and the lovely mention for Country Kids.
ReplyDeleteIt was a great idea. I get lots of good ideas from your linky party each week. I visit many of those who link up each week. Thanks so much for hosting.
DeletePhoto scavenger hunt, how clever, looks like it was fun too :0)
ReplyDeleteIt was great fun!
DeleteScavenger hunts are so much fun! Thanks so much for sharing yours at After School.
ReplyDeleteThanks Anna.
DeletePhoto scavenger hunting is certainly a fun and learning activity for children. It gives them the chance to take the initiative and be responsible. What makes the game more challenging is that you can't stop until you complete the list. And that also develops kids' determination and hard work.
