Winter scavenger hunt!

the boy has been sick. 


but, outside has been unseasonably warm and wonderful! May needed a little something to encourage her to be outside and not glued to the TV like her brother is.  So, I created an outside winter scavenger hunt!

Ready? GO!



She loved it so much that she requested a new one for the next day. I think we'll be doing many more of these and maybe even include the boy next time!



Here are her finds from the first scavenger hunt...
