Santa’s Toy Hunt

Start a mission to find hidden tools, such as miniature hammers and toy wrenches, which will bring children to Santa’s workshop, where they will find modest gifts. 

There is a hint that is revealed by each tool, and the final surprise is a do-it-yourself ornament creation.

Frosty’s Lost Buttons Hunt 

Help Frosty locate the buttons that he has lost, which are dispersed throughout the home. 

With each button, a hint is revealed for the following location, which culminates in a snowy surprise consisting of hot cocoa and marshmallows in a scene that is reminiscent of a winter wonderland.

Reindeer Race

Relay races with difficulties centered around reindeer should be organized. When a task is completed successfully, a piece of the reindeer puzzle is revealed. 

Putting together the puzzle will allow you to discover the location of hidden goodies or little gifts, adding a touch of festive excitement to the experience.

Jingle Bell Jamboree

By transforming jingle bells into clues, you may create a musical treasure hunt. Put bells on concealed items all about the house, and make sure that each bell has its own distinct sound. 

As the children discover the bells, they begin to collect them in order to compose a joyful melody. The hunt comes to a close with a holiday dance party, during which the bells that were collected are used as accompaniment to the music.

Jingle Bell Hunt

With the Jingle Bell Hunt, an appealing spin on the traditional children’s scavenger hunt, you can be set to make your Christmas celebration into a symphony of delight this year.ย 

To get the party started, 

  • Scatter an assortment of sparkling jingle bells ๐Ÿ”” across your festive location. 
  • Each bell should have its own characteristic chime that will get people’s hearts racing. 
  • Provide the children with either a mystical map or a set of cunning clues that will take them to the buried wealth. 
  • The child who wins gets felicitated with a Santa hat and a sock filled with goodies. 

As they follow the joyous tune of the bells and spread giggles ๐Ÿ˜„ and excitement like Santa’s mischievous elves, you should encourage their talents as detectives while they do so. 

Not only will the triumphant discovery of these musical gems bring pleasure, but it will also orchestrate a festive spirit of seasonal delight.

Frosty’s Frosting Hunt

For this activity, 

  • You should provide each child with a base of sponge cake ๐ŸŽ‚ and a variety of frosting in Christmas color themes. 
  • They will have 15 minutes to decorate the cake in any way they like, but the frosting they use must have some significance, which they will explain in the form of an engaging story for the audience to hear. 

It will inspire them to speak in front of others, which is a skill that will serve them well during their time in school as well as in later life.

Candy Cane Quest

Gather your children in the backyard and try to bury as many candy canes ๐Ÿญ still in their wrappings as you can. Now it’s time to question children about Christmas, its significance, and its background. 

Whoever gives the correct response to a question is awarded a clue that they can use to locate a candy cane and have it all to themselves to enjoy.ย 

Reindeer Roundup Hunt

“Reindeer Roundup” is a Christmas-themed scavenger hunt that will get kids in the holiday spirit! Santa’s reindeer have left clues for kids to find, creating a fun adventure. 

Follow Rudolph’s glowing nose to find ornaments, candy canes, and jingle bells. Each hint leads them closer to the main prize, a golden sleigh full of presents, increasing excitement. 

Reindeer Roundup combines joy and discovery with laughter and glittering lights, making this Christmas unforgettable for the tiny elves!

North Pole Treasure Hunt

Your children will need some knowledge of geography ๐Ÿ—พ if they want to succeed in this game. This means that there will be toys and candy lying around the house in random places. 

The children will receive clues and maps to help them figure out where they may find these delicious treats. The catch is that all of the tips and clues will only be provided in the form of directions to follow. 

For instance, if the candy ๐Ÿฌ is hidden behind the couch and the child is standing in front of it, the clue that will be given to him will be something along the lines of “Walk 15 steps to your right and then two steps to the front, and you will have won yourself a candy cane.” Voila! And that is it.

Christmas Cookie Hunt

Let’s get the oven ๐ŸŒ„ preheating. My children have a great time participating in this hunt, making it feel almost like a tradition because, at the end of it, they get to devour some truly amazing, warm, fudgy, and chewy cookies, which is something that the whole family enjoys.

For this hunt – 

  • You simply need some cookie dough and an unusual ingredient of your choosing. 
  • Nothing more is required. 
  • Bake the cookies, including the top-secret, special ingredient. 
  • When the cookies ๐Ÿช are done, another child will try one and try to identify what component it contains. 
  • The winner will receive an enormous jar of Rocky Road cookie dough if their prediction is correct.
  • You may put a marshmallow in the middle or use orange zest or bubble gum as an unusual element.

Gingerbread House Hunt

  • Construct tiny gingerbread houses and hide them in places. 
  • One catch, though, is that these gingerbread marvels aren’t simply staying out of sight; they’re actively engaging in a game of hide-and-seek! 
  • With a pinch of festive cheer and an ounce of curiosity, kids set off on their journey, but one of the adults (OF COURSE) may magically move the gingerbread houses along the way. 

Use the magic of storytelling to tell the story of the Gingerbread Guardians as they embark on a fantastical journey to recover all the houses. It’s not just a search; it’s a fascinating narrative of sweetness, humor, and unexpected surprises!

Holiday Ornament Hunt

I have a lot of enthusiasm for this hunt, and I will advise you to go on it. It brings back such fond memories for me because my mother was the one who came up with the idea for this hunt in the first place๐Ÿซฐ. 

Every year around the holidays, she would make sure that we participated in this hunt and that we had a great time doing it.ย 

In order to complete this quest,

  • The children will have the opportunity to select chits one at a time from a pot that contains clues that will guide them to each ornament. 
  • They will then need to hang these ornaments on the Christmas tree, after which the points will be tallied, and the winner will be determined based on who has the most points.

Stocking Stuffer Search

I used to enjoy this a lot as a kid. 

For this treasure hunt, children will each receive their own set of clues. They will eventually locate a 

variety of socks ๐Ÿงฆ if they follow these directions. The person who finds a sock full of gifts first gets to keep all of the presents that are hidden within the sock. Come on, it’s like winning the lottery with all these goodies.ย 

Christmas Carol Challenge Hunt

For this activity, your child will need a piece of paper, and you will need to set a timer for fifteen minutes.

Mistletoe Magic Hunt

In order to participate in this hunt, the children will need to run a race with the mistletoe serving as the destination point. 

There will be a dish of cupcakes waiting for you under the mistletoe. The children are required to arrive there and consume the cupcakes as quickly as they can; however, if any of their parents are able to kiss ๐Ÿ˜˜ them during this time, they will be disqualified. 

On the other hand, they will be deemed successful if they are able to consume all of them without being kissed by either of their parents.

Present Pursuit Hunt

The fact that my children can learn so much from this search makes it one of my favorites. 

In this activity, all you have to do is quiz the kids by asking them a series of questions, and if they get them right, they will win a cash ๐Ÿ’ฒ prize that will increase based on how many questions they get right. Isn’t that simply wonderful โ“

They will have won the competition if they are able to finish all four rounds of zorbing without having the ears fall off.

Nutcracker Noodle Hunt

I only love this scavenger hunt because of its name. It’s so delicious for some reason. Is it weird to say that, you tell meโ“

For a kid-friendly, Christmassy scavenger hunt, try the Nutcracker Noodle Hunt. Treasure hunters go out on their quest as they follow seasonal hints strewn throughout the area.

The word “Noodle” is playful, implying that the clues to the treasure may be tangled together like noodles ๐Ÿœ, a twist on the standard treasure hunt. Kids will explore the wonderful world of the Nutcracker, solving riddles or following noodle-shaped passageways to unearth amazing surprises.ย 

Children will get into the Christmas mood and have a blast while learning about the fascinating world of the Nutcracker through this exciting treasure hunt.

This quest is exactly the same as any other treasure hunt, with the exception that it takes place at night. Because of this, it is essential for the child to have an adult accompany them and bring a torch. 

The children will have to interpret the clues in order to locate the abundance of gifts that have been concealed throughout the wintry ๐Ÿฅถ nights.ย

If they are successful in performing those risky actions while also keeping each and every component of their outfit, like the halo ring ๐Ÿ‘ผ, then they win a gift that is completely up to them and might be whatever they choose.

Ribbon Riddle Hunt

My children absolutely adore this particular hunt more than any other one we’ve ever done. It gives them the impression that they are private investigators ๐Ÿ•ต๏ธ on the lookout for an important clue. 

  • Telling the children a made-up narrative in which Santa Claus has lost all of his presents and is extremely concerned about the situation is a good way to get this activity started. 
  • Continue by informing the children that their mission is to locate Santa’s misplaced presents. 
  • Provide them with hints that are packaged in ribbons ๐ŸŽ—๏ธ.

The person who makes the most unique snow products during the competition will be declared the winner.

Mitten Matching Hunt

If you ask me, this one is fairly time-consuming, but it will guarantee that your child stays active throughout the day. 

Give your children one mitten ๐ŸฅŠ out of a pair and a hint to help them find the other one. I want to caution you that this particular hint will not be the easiest one to solve. 

If they can still find a pair that goes with it, they have just given themselves a lovely pair of mittens that will look great with any winter outfit. 

To my ears, that seems like a really sweet offer.ย 

Log Scavenger Hunt 

This hunt is going to need a bit of manpower in addition to the supervision of an adult. You should provide your children with some carts ๐Ÿ›’ and then send them out into the woods with the instruction to find as many logs ๐Ÿชต as they can in a period of four to five minutes.

S’mores and Stories Hunt

This scavenger hunt is my favorite because, towards the end of this, you have like a million s’mores to munch on, and let me tell you, I LOVE S’MORES.ย 

For this particular treasure hunt,

  • The children will be creating s’mores; therefore, an adult must be present to supervise them. 
  • You should provide them with graham crackers ๐Ÿ˜, marshmallows, and chocolate. 
  • Prepare a campfire and get ready for some s’moring. 
  • The catch is that the adult should have them tell a narrative about their favorite childhood memory as the child is preparing the s’mores themselves. 

This will improve their public speaking ๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ and storytelling skills as a result, which are two highly valuable qualities for any individual to have.

  • During this minute, they have the opportunity to load up their shopping carts or sleighs with anything they choose, and you will purchase it for them.  

Why don’t we do this in the spirit of Christmas, eh?

Cozy Cocoa Quest

This search is just the right amount of chocolatey coziness for me. You might be wondering how a hunt can possibly have a chocolaty โ˜• flavor. 

  • This hunt is all about the kids creating the most fantastic hot cocoas, obviously under the supervision of an adult. 
  • The hunt here is obviously hunting down for the most unique ingredient to add to your cocoas. There is no winner ๐Ÿฅ‡ in this situation because every kid already has that title. 

Once, for a Christmas party that I had at my house, I organized this hunt, and I remember one of the children participating by producing the most creative and unusual version of hot chocolate by adding crushed peppermints ๐Ÿญ to it.ย 

I thought that was absolutely incredible. 

#safetyfirst- Be sure to monitor the forecast and make any necessary adjustments. In the event of really severe weather, keep children indoors. Make preparations for the possibility of bad weather.
