Currently, I am a stay at home mama with two beautiful preschool-age children. I want to be able to offer these resources for FREE as I develop them for my kids.

How to Print Free Christmas Scavenger Hunt Printable Bundle?
PRINT.
The pdf file includes 13 pages. Print at home, local library, or store. The pages contain low to moderate levels of color to help draw the attention and delight of younger children. I have also included a black and white option to help reduce the cost of ink.
FOR BEST RESULTS.
I highly recommend printing on cardstock and laminating the scavenger hunts and bucket list bingo printables for increased durability and for continued use. Laminating the printables allows your child to mark off completed boxes with a dry-erase marker.

What are the benefits of using Scavenger Hunts with Kids?
Playing is learning. Scavenger hunts are a perfect activity to get kids to engage their imagination and problem-solving skills. These printables are not another activity that entertains but rather educates and connects families and kids.
Here are a few benefits of using these Scavenger Hunt Printables at home and in the classroom:
- improve reading skills
- challenge problem-solving skills
- increase social skills (if performed with other kids or family members)
- increase confidence
- practice fine motor skills (managing a tactile list)
- improve multi-tasking skills
- challenge focusing and attention skills
- improve body awareness
- challenge safety awareness and ability to follow boundaries
- improve following instructions
- practice time management and self-pacing (if timed)
- improve visual scanning
How can I use these Free Christmas Scavenger Hunt Printables?
Using the free Christmas scavenger hunts can be as simple as printing off the free printable, giving your child a writing utensil (or stickers), and supervising them outdoors/indoors while they hunt for the different items.
Here are a few ways to use the Scavenger Hunt Printables:
- download and print off scavenger hunts
- take a screenshot of the printable
- call out the different items one by one
- pair off in teams to work together
Need a Challenge for Older Kids:
- create a time limit
- add more adjectives or numbers to specific items on the list
- provide a camera to create photo scavenger hunts
- provide pen and paper for them to draw or journal about each item
- require a set goal such as 2000 steps during the outdoor hunt (if you have a step counter)
- add friendly competition between small groups to win fun prizes, candy canes, and non-candy treats
Add this fun activity to lesson plans, part of a themed Christmas week, (or Christmas school) group work, hands-on learning time outdoors, and early learning fun for a great way to enhance your kids’ or students’ language development, observational skills, following directions, and communication skills.
Complement this activity with a fun Christmas game, more free Christmas printables, a simple Christmas craft, and other fun christmas ideas.
Always supervise your children when playing with printables. Young children could chew on paper (or other craft markers such as marker caps, craft pom-poms etc), which can lead to choking.
