Giveaway WINNER and: Summer fun: A to Z scavenger hunt!

First,
THANK YOU to all the awesome folks who entered the giveaway!
I especially loved all the sharing on twitter,
and the comments on the writing and reading process.

Without further ado….

Woo Hoo! Winner!
Woo Hoo! Winner!

Congrats, Holli!
I’m sending you an email so you can send me your address.
If you didn’t win, don’t worry.

I plan to do more giveaways soon!

Alright, on to the summer fun!
So I’m home visiting friends for 5 weeks.
And my hometown?
Not the most exciting.

It’s nice and all,
but there’s not A TON of things to do.

Some people that I’m visiting?
Children that I babysat when they were younger.
Now they’re 14 and 16 and have iphones!

What to do?

A-Z photo scavenger hunt! Get excited!
A-Z photo scavenger hunt! Get excited!

The rules:

  1. Must take a picture of something that begins with the letter A, then take a picture  of something that begins with the letter B, and so on and so forth.
  2. CAN NOT go out of order.
  3. Picture has to be the common name of something!
  4. Can’t take a picture of ANYTHING on your person (no arm, toe, finger…)
  5. First one done WINS!
  6. NO going in the house (That would have made it too easy!)

We did this just on their street, in probably a four block radius.
Here’s my results:

A-F: antenna, bush, car, door, eight, five.

The verdict:
Really fun!
I ended up winning BUT they claimed the yellow of the license plate is actually GOLD,
so, in reality, I didn’t win 🙁

But we all won because we had so much fun.
I’d say the whole thing took 30 minutes.
You could obviously play this WITHOUT iphones;
just have kids write down the things they find.

Have you ever had an A-Z scavenger hunt?

Until next time,
KE and SS
