15 Garden Crafts for Kids

Spring-Time Scavengers

I Am Momma Hear Me Roar offers up this fun idea for creating a DIY spring scavenger hunt -- and what a great excuse to get the kiddos outdoors for an afternoon of fun with nature!

To get started, Mom Cheri went out in their yard and found 12 different "treasures" that would be easy for her son to find. She added photos of all of the items on white posterboard, put the images together and then added them to a printable sheet that would fit nicely on an egg carton -- perfect for housing all of the found items! If you don't have time to make your own images, Cheri's backyard items are available to print -- though she warns that based on where you live, you might not have the same treasures. Check out the full post to see everything she included, or for ideas on making one from scratch to fit your own backyard.
