{Wedding Favors} Antiqued Clay Tags

This time of year (summer where I live) I’m often looking for fun activities that can be done indoors because it’s hot outside.

This LEGO scavenger hunt is a fun idea you can do with a single kid or a group if you have enough clues to divvy them up.

Frugal Fun 4 Boys and Girls shares this idea that is like a treasure hunt for the mini figs. Each clue shows where a mini figure is hiding and kids can collect the figures as they go. You can do this with old figures or buy a set of figures for this purpose. 

You could also just put little constructions or pieces in the areas for kids to find and then have them make something with all the materials they scavenged.

This idea comes with a set of 16 printable cards that are already filled out with clues. It’s meant to be done at home so the places to find are things like the mailbox, bookshelf, washing machine, sock drawer, refrigerator and clock, to name a few. She suggests using eight to 10 clues at a time so if you don’t have all these things in your home (dog leash, for example) you can just skip those.

There aren’t any blank cards in the set but you could of course write your own clues if you want to do this activity in the classroom or throw in some clues that might be more unique to places in your house. You could even add some clues that will be found outside if it’s not too hot.

What’s your favorite indoor activity when it’s just too hot to play outside? I’d love to hear your ideas!
