Plan a Picture Scavenger Hunt

A scavenger hunt can be a fun and exciting game to play, even for adults. A picture scavenger hunt is easy to organize, fun to do, and will get your whole gang laughing. It is simple to set up your own picture scavenger hunt, and you will be sure to have a ball doing it!

Difficulty: Moderate
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Camera
  • Prize
  1. Step 1

    All people involved in the scavenger hunt should divide into two teams. The teams should be of equal size. Each team gets a disposable or digital camera.

  2. Step 2

    The leader of the whole group of people involved in the decides on a list of photos that must be taken during the scavenger hunt. This can be anything from a group photo in front of a store, a picture of someone in a sweat suit or a picture of someone eating a certain food.

  3. Step 3

    Give each photo a specific point value. The photo that would the hardest to get should get the highest points.

  4. Step 4

    Decide on the prize for who wins the scavenger hunt, if you haven't already.

  5. Step 5

    Set a time limit for the group to be back. It should be reasonable-anywhere from 1 to 2 hours, enough time to get the amount of photos in the scavenger hunt.

  6. Step 6

    When the group comes back, compare pictures. If the pictures need to be developed, have them done at a 1-hour shop. A digital camera can simply be looked through, and a Polaroid camera will already have given out the photos.

  7. Step 7

    Add up the point value of each picture that was taken. The team with the most points wins the scavenger hunt--and the prize!

Tips & Warnings
  • A Polaroid camera is a great way to get your pictures fast in a scavenger hunt!
