Help! Please give me ideas for a scavenger hunt!

I've got 14 13-year old girls coming for a scavenger hunt party on Saturday. I've got some ideas - specifically:

  • find 3 interesting and contrasting stones from the beach
  • find the most beautiful object you can for £2 in one of the junk shops
  • find 5 different types of tree leaf
  • find an architecturally interesting building and draw it

But I would love more! Ideally ones that don't need telephones...

Thank you so much.

Can you get them to unscramble some words for clues to lead them places?

Find the funniest/weirdest item in a charity shop is always good.

Find a specific book (from a charity shop).

Find a picture of the King (clever ones will bring a coin or a stamp).

Street name that contains a certain item/colour/name.

Do a good deed.

What a great idea what do they get at the end ?

Find a shop with as many of the letters from your name in it as you can. Most letters wins.

Rather than find the most beautiful, I’d say the funniest as above, or the most useful for a new home.

The oddest detail above eye level (they’d have to take pictures sorry)

A stained glass window (picture again)

Find 5 different beach treasures.

Find a pebble shaped like a heart.

Get a photograph of you jumping with your feet off the floor on the beach.

Write a message using pebbles.

Create a picture using only objects they find on the beach.

Take a selfie underneath or inside something that you would not normally get under or inside.

These are all brilliant - thank you!
