How to Make a Scavenger Hunt for Adults

A scavenger hunt can be a fun date activity or a way to break the ice with a group of people-don't think that scavenger hunts are only for kids. This simple article will teach you how to make a scavenger hunt for adults.

Instructions

1. 

   First you need to pick a location. Grab a notebook and a pen and jot down some ideas. Shopping malls work well, and so do parks-but if you don't want to play around with a location too much the grocery store is always a safe bet!

2. 

   Next you need to decide what kind of scavenger hunt you are going to make. A picture scavenger hunt is always fun (one where you take pictures of the objects you find), but you can always choose to collect or buy the items on the list as well.

3. 

   The next step is to make a scavenger hunt fun-you get to write the clues for the scavenger hunt. Go through the store or the park and pick objects that you wish them to find. Don't limit your clues to just objects though-consider taking pictures of famous actor look-alikes, or asking questions to random people.

4. Once you have a good list of objects and things to make your scavenger hunt with, alter the clues a little to make them more challenging. Since you are writing for adults be creative with your clues. Consider putting parts of them in Spanish, or go to a nice search engine and put them through a word scrambler.

5. 

   Once you have your clues written you need to divide up into teams and find a way to keep score. Determine before you begin your scavenger hunt how much each item will be worth and how you will determine the winner.

6. 

   Even though you are making a scavenger hunt with adults, it might not be a bad idea to have a prize for the winners at the end-or if not, sheer competition should be enough to motivate most adults.
