What is Inside This Scavenger Hunt Pack?
I wanted to make sure you had a “hunt” for every possible situation. I’ve included a mix of outdoor adventures and indoor savers in this 10-page PDF.
1. Outdoor & Nature Hunts
- Classic Winter Nature Scavenger Hunt: Spot pinecones, bare trees, or animal tracks. This pairs well with our Animals in Winter Worksheets.

- Winter Animal Hunt: Keep your eyes peeled for squirrels or winter birds.
2. Indoor Scavenger Hunts
- Classroom / Home Hunt: Find “hot cocoa” or “a soft blanket.” This is as cozy as our Winter Coloring Pages.
