Valentine’s Day Scavenger Hunt Printable for Kids

Friday, January 22, 2016 by Lolli 10 Comments

Do your kids love doing scavenger hunts? I’m excited to share this Valentine’s Day Scavenger Hunt Printable for kids!

Valentine's Day Scavenger Hunt - a free printable activity for kids from Food Fun Family

It’s a new year and that means (among many other things!) a whole new batch of Entertainment Hop posts. Last year, I offered an almost-monthly list of children’s picture books for each of the holidays. As I brainstormed what I could do for this year’s Entertainment Hop party, I knew that I wanted to come up with a year-long idea that I could do for each theme. I was so thrilled when I thought of making monthly scavenger hunt printables for kids.

Check out my list of Valentine’s Day picture books for kids AND my list of 15 good, clean romance novels for adults!

How to use this Valentine’s Day Scavenger Hunt Printable

Look around in the weeks leading up to Valentine’s Day, and you’ll likely see a ton of red and pink, lace, hearts, cupids, and more. Why not make the holiday season into a fun scavenger hunt? The best thing about this scavenger hunt is that it can be played many different ways – use the printable list as a guide and make the game your own. Simply print off as many sheets as you need, and then go have some fun!

  • Single-player game: race against the clock! See how many of the items on the list you can find in 5, 10, or 15 minutes. Look in the house for as many items as possible, or find things that aren’t at home in a magazine or book.
  • Group scavenger hunt: If you have enough players, divide into 2 teams. Each team works together to find the items on the list. Reconvene at a specific time to compare what each team was able to find.
  • Get creative! Some items are easier than others to “collect” as participants search for things on the list. Let the kids think of alternative methods of “collection” such as taking a picture, drawing a picture, or having an adult initial next to an item on the list. See ideas for gathering clues below.
  • Broaden your search area. With parental permission/supervision, teams can ask neighbors for help gathering scavenger hunt items. Maybe you don’t have a cupid at home, but a neighbor does. Make sure that kids know to only go to houses where they know the people that live there, and always bring a buddy along.

Methods of gathering “clues:”

  • Each person or group has a small bag and collects as many items inside the bag as the can in a set amount of time. At the end, everyone shows off the item they’ve collected.
  • Each person or group has a digital camera (phones, ipod, etc) and snaps a picture of each item they find.
  • Simply check off each item on the scavenger hunt paper as it is found or have another person act as a “witness” and initial the paper to verify that an item was found.
  • Use your imagination! Let the players decide the rules!
