Scavenger Hunt Clue Ideas

The weather is warming up nicely, the trees and flowers are in bloom, and soon the weather will be hot enough for a trip to the beach. While you are there, why not have some extra fun with some beach themed games? Treasure hunting at the beach can be very simple and easy, and loads of fun for the whole family.

Buried treasure is especially fun for kids to find, so why not have a buried treasure hunt? This is best done when one adult can go ahead of the kids and hide the treasure to be found. Alternatively, you could just use what is naturally buried in the sand, and make the treasure hunt a scavenger hunt also!

If you are burying the treasure to be found, make it relative to the beach. Differently shaped containers, buckets, inflatable float toys, and nets are all good ideas for buried treasure. Small, well-packaged snacks and drinks could be included as well. With the help of Riddle Me, you can create a treasure map with clues to help with the discovery! After the treasure has been unburied, use the found goods to build an interesting and unique sand castle!

To use what is found naturally buried at the beach and have a scavenger hunt instead, make a list of items for your family to search for. You can find some great ideas with the help of the software at www.riddleme.net. Sand dollars, different types of shells, dried starfish, and even living creatures such as hermit crabs are all fun options for a scavenger hunt. They will also make memorable keepsakes to take home after the trip is over, reminding you and your family of the fun at the beach for years to come.
