GREEN is the official color for the month of March thanks to the celebration of St.Patrick’s Day! During the week I made up a GREEN Scavenger Hunt for my kids. I listed 17 things that the kids had to find around the room. Each time they found an item or did what the question required of them, I would check off the box by the number with a GREEN marker! If you wanted to make this more complicated and were able to go outside and leave you can go on a scavenger hunt in your local park, on a car trip, or in a grocery store. This kept my kids pretty entertained and they found way more green things that I actually knew were in the room. Below are the 17 questions that I came up with, have fun with your kiddos and comment with any other ideas or variations your have done!
