OVERVIEW: This
Easter hunt game is not your traditional Easter Egg hunt. It
includes a variety of exciting activities for all ages to keep everyone
involved. There
are team road challenges, mystery challenges, puzzles to solve, and of
course a SCAVENGER HUNT loaded with surprises! It not only promotes fun
and team building, it also gets you to discover your town or community
and celebrate the holiday at the same time.
NOTE: This Easter
hunt includes driving or walking to places in your community but
we provide alternative suggestions if driving or leaving the premises
is not possible. Use
our scavenger hunt ideas as templates for your own hunt.
The Operation
Egghead hunt was a huge hit!!! A few of the older ladies did not want
to participate, but by the time they had decided on "bossy broads" for
their team name it went great. Even had one mens team steal the kids
car keys so they couldn't travel...but kids went and "stole" another
vehicle for the event. Great fun was had by all & they are all
looking forward to our next big hunt. Thanks, Tracy Brucker, Sibley,
IL. More
testimonials.
NUMBER
OF TEAMS/PLAYERS: Unlimited. Recommended
minimum per team: 3. Maximum: 8.
?What
if you only have a few kids participating in this Easter hunt? Instead
of dividing them into teams, you can keep them all on one team and
have them race against the clock, giving the single team a time limit
to complete each section of the hunt, report back to you and bribe
you for the next section and so on until the hunt is complete.
AGE
RANGE: This Easter hunt
is an excellent event for families of all ages, kids/teens, youth groups,
school groups, and even workplaces.
LENGTH OF HUNT: About
3 hours from start to finish. After
the hunt, a 1-hour time slot is recommended to share team’s findings,
tell their exciting stories, total the points and award the Great Easter
Hunters. There are other optional activities that could be
added to extend the celebration of the holiday.
PRE-HUNT PREP TIME: For
up to 6 teams, you can put our scavenger hunts together
in about 3 to 6 hours (includes shopping for
supplies, reading the scavenger hunt and prepping/printing the
materials). As you add teams, you'll need to add time to
the pre-hunt prep.
THE WINNING TEAM: We include fun "Personal
Award" award certificates. Participants can cast their votes for the
most enthusiastic person, the person with the wackiest ideas and more.
In addition we have the Great Hunt "Grand Prize" award to the team who
scores the most points overall.
Thank so you
much for the follow-up! We greatly enjoyed the scavenger hunt! We have
set a tradition in our family to do easter egg hunts just for the adult-children.
It is so amazing how much they all look forward to it (being kids again!).
I include cash a prize offerings in the big-kid eggs along with a piece
of candy and their competitive spirit as adults really gets them going.
I wanted to branch out this year and include a scavenger hunt, just
to see how they would respond. WOW! Thanks again for your product.
It gave me an instant green light at the last minute for "something
new." I
will be looking to your site for "clue/treasure" hunts for
next year. Being able to take your template and customize it on my
own PC was especially helpful. Thanks again! Irene Trunnell, Fruitland,
ID. More testimonials.

is worth 100 points; they must also be sure to go to the correct restaurant!).
There are 6 additional road challenges including one section that
is all in riddle form. NOTE: We provide alternative
