As promised, I’m continuing my discussion on some brief ideas for making use of a scavenger hunt :)
\n
\n\"\"On-Campus Hunts:<\/strong>
\nText message scavenger hunts can be used in so many different ways on-campus (or really, at any university, college, school or general club\/organisation :)
\nStudent councils are always trying to think of fun and different ways of engaging students in activities.\u00a0 Why not use a scavenger hunt to:
\n– Put together a pub crawl: use the hunt to lead students from one pub to the next, using different clues to help point students in the right direction
\n– Campus tour: Why not make a campus tour a bit more exciting? They don’t always have to be long and boring ;) Have the students follow along the hunt – this way, they will learn more about the campus and remember their surroundings better for the future
\n
\nTeenage or Adult Parties:<\/strong>\"\"
\nI went to a birthday party once where it was setup like a city race.\u00a0 We had to log all of our answers into a website (that was built specifically for this hunt) and the next clue would then show up once the correct answer was inputted.\u00a0 Clues were setup to bring the teams to different locations across the city using public transportation.\u00a0 Why not just use an easy-to-use and already-made tool like textclues.com to bring your party to life?
\n
\nEducational purposes:<\/strong>
\nDo you want to try to make learning fun for your kids? Try making some practice homework assignments, such as the multiplication table, a bit more fun (and surprising) for your kids!\u00a0 Make it into a game by creating a text scavenger hunt that can occur at any time of day.\u00a0 This way – the kids will have fun at the same time as doing something educational.
\n
\nI know, this was all somewhat brief however the next few posts will provide specific examples on how to make use of a scavenger hunt for any of these ideas.\u00a0 We’ll start off with kid’s birthday parties and how you can make it fun and enjoyable for all participating kids.\u00a0 Stay tuned ;)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
