Outdoor Photo Scavenger Hunt

Hello, it’s Rachel from The Mormon Home! Do you love going to the park and playing outside with your kids? Or is it a boring? Monotonous? Maybe you’ve already been to the park one-hundred-and-one times this summer! Creative games, like this outdoor alphabet photo scavenger hunt, may be the only thing that helps you get through the last few weeks before school starts again.

I have a friend who couldn’t stand hanging out with his kids at the park. He tried to enjoy it more by making a new game: he would drive his kids to as many parks as they could find in one hour. I think they all had to slide and swing before they jumped back into the car for the next park. It was his way of coping with a chore.

I usually think the park is fun and I love being outside! But last week when Max and I were there with no playmates aside from his baby brother, Max was b.o.r.e.d. So instead of doing the normal park stuff I let him use my phone and told Max to take pictures of something starting with every letter, A through Z. Max (and I) had a great time coming up with all the letters and Max loved using my phone to snap the shots for this photo scavenger hunt. You can check out the collage of our work below.
