Give your kids a little extra fun hunting for their sweet treat in this Valentine’s Day Clue Scavenger Hunt. With 12 clues, they will use their reasoning and reading skills.
There is something so exciting about clues.
In fact, I was testing these Valentine’s Day Clue Scavenger Hunt cards on my six year old and she was having so much fun figuring them out.
The reasoning skills, process of elimination, and the elation when you finally figure out the answer makes for an exciting and different kind of play time.
If you are looking to make your Valentine’s Day a little bit more special and memory-making, print your set of clues and set that core memory of the kids running around to find each one.
