Location
The best place to play this is your neighborhood, provided you have plenty of neighbors who decorate their yards for Halloween.
If that doesn’t happen on your street, you’ll need to walk / drive to a different neighborhood that has plenty of yard decorations.
When
This could either be played in the days leading up to Halloween or on 31 October while trick or treating to make the night even more fun.
Teams
If you’re playing this with your own kids, you can walk around together trying to spot all the items on the scavenger hunt list.
To make it more competitive, get together with some of your kids’ friends and their parents and each take a couple of different streets to see who can find the most ornaments.
Instructions
Give the kids a copy of the list of Halloween yard ornaments that you can find below.
Explain that their task is to walk around your local area and see how many of the different ornaments and decorations they can find.
