Nature Scavenger Hunt

A couple of days ago my husband went for a bike ride at the cottage and found an old car abandoned in the forest. Obviously he thought it was awesome and couldn't wait to take Monkey to see it. I knew it would be the perfect opportunity for Monkey to do this nature scavenger hunt I had been saving to use at the cottage - but you could do this scavenger hunt almost anywhere outdoors (the park, your favourite hiking trail, etc).

I got the printable here: http://bitzngiggles.com/nature-hunt-bingo/

Supplies: nature hunt printable (free from link above, printed on cardstock), marker, magnifying glass 

We didn't play this as a bingo game, but instead Monkey tried to cross off as many as he could. 

Monkey always loves running around with his magnifying glass, and he was extra excited to have it at the cottage. Before he left with his Daddy, he was already trying to find things to cross off his list. 

Once they finally made it to the abandoned car and walked around, they were able to cross off about a third of the items on the list. 

How cool is that car?! 

This activity was a huge hit with Monkey. He's gone back to the old car with his dad two more times, and he always insists that they bring his list and magnifying glass. He's seen almost everything by now. 

A big thanks to my husband for taking pictures for me to use for this post!
