===Objectives===
Group contributions, resourcefulness, and creative thinking
===Directions===
After groups are formed, ask one representative to come up and get a paper bag with the scavenger hunt list in it. Ask the group not to open the bag until you say, “go”âgoâ. Establish the boundaries, which are usually the room itself. Tell them to be creative in finding the items on the list and put them in the bag. As long as they can justify it, and can convince the audience it will work. Call time after ten minutes. Have each group explain their items. If you choose to score the activity, have the audience clap, or an “impartial judge” âimpartial judgeâ decides.
Suggested scavenger hunt items:
If you are trying to orient a group to a new space, consider adding items such as “date âdate stamp from library” libraryâ or “parking âparking ticket from garage”garageâ, “count âcount the number of stairmasters in the gym” gymâ or similar challenges to help them learn the physical layout of the new space. .
Also consider thematic lists: camping trips, holidays, etc.
'''Variation''': Alphabet scavenger hunt: have each group find something on their bodies that begins with each letter of the alphabet, have them record the words on a sheet of paper.
