The great thing with this type of hunt is that there is no single right way to go about it.
Who are you going to do this virtual scavenger hunt with?
If you are like us and haver a large family, then there’s always someone to play with, if there are only a few of you, why not jump on facetime or Zoom and have a virtual race to see who can collect all the items first, why not arrange a virtual playdate with some of your children’s classmates,. or maybe get the grandparents, aunties, uncles and cousins involved, there really is no maximum amount of people that can take part, as long as you are in sight of the list of items to find.
And when you’ve all found everything on the list, why not settle down for a delicious Mickey Cookies and Cream Milkshake
