After such great feedback with my outdoor scavenger hunt, I started thinking of other fun ways to keep our kids engaged through a scavenger hunt style. With rain in the forecast, I realized a car ride scavenger hunt was a perfect fit.

The idea is it’s simple and fun while encouraging your children (and you) to be observant and enjoy their surroundings. My goal was that all these items would be easy to spot – rain or shine.

To make it more interesting, instead of check-marks, keep a tally of how many of each thing you see during your drive. Whoever has the most at the end – WINS.
