        Determine if you will make it challenging or easy. Easy is better for little kids so that they won't get too frustrated gathering the articles on the scavenger hunt list.

        Decide on a theme for your Valentine scavenger hunt. You might consider "things Cupid lost," things that are pink or red or things that are heart-shaped. Part of a romantic couple? Choose a more "adult" theme suitable for your relationship.

        Select items for the hunt. Make sure they tie into your theme. Buy the items ahead of time if you do not already have them on hand. Anywhere from seven to ten items is a good number if you have only one "hunter;" up to twenty is good for more people.

        Print up a list so the hunter(s) know what to look for. You can make a list of the items for smaller children or give clues for older kids and adults.

        Award a prize to the person who gathered the most correct items if there is more than one contestant. It could be a Valentine-themed stuffed animal, sparkling wine or cider, candy or another special, romantic prize.

    Tips & Warnings

    • Be careful using funky fonts for your scavenger list. They can be hard to read for many people.
