FREE Printable Scavenger Hunts
These free printable scavenger hunts can be done inside and outside around your house. There will be scavenger hunts for everything from rhyming, math, phonics, geography, reading, and grammar.
My purpose in creating these is simple and fun. You will not need to purchase any special supplies. The only tools you might need are a clipboard {or a hard surface to write on} and a writing utensil.
My goal is to post one new free pack a week. This series started on Monday, May 25 and will run for 10 weeks through the end of July. A picture of each pack will be added to an image gallery at the bottom of this post so you can find the post and download the freebies.
