This last week we’ve been doing a lot of scavenger hunts at home, they’re a great way to keep the kids busy as they race around looking for all the items they need! A few days ago I shared an outdoor scavenger hunt for kids and today I’m sharing this free indoor scavenger hunt, perfect for if you don’t have a garden or if the weather is less than awesome.
We’ve got lots of scavenger hunt ideas for kids but I have to admit that this one is one of my favourite printables that we’ve shared, it’s just such an easy way to keep the kids occupied hopefully while you get to grab a cup or tea.

What You'll Find on This Page
Indoor Scavenger Hunt
To help make sure that the activity lasts a little longer all the things to find need to be coloured in rather than just ticked off (although you can do that if you’d prefer!)
Obviously make sure that you print the PDF below and not the images on this page or they’ll look all wonky, although if you want to pin an image so you don’t forget about this then go for one of them.

Those are absolutely adorable…in fact, they all look amazing. Going to share these with my daughter, we are always looking for fun activities for the little ones!
Lovely printables and activities! My boys will have a fantastic time! Thank you 🙂
So glad you like them 🙂
We are planning a family scavenger hunt. Each family will work as a team. Some families have 6 and some only 2. Do you have any suggestions how to make it fair for families finding items with only 2 looking as opposed to 6 looking?
Hmm, that’s tricky! I guess if you use things like ‘find a hairbrush’ that are specific items rather than ‘find something green’ that everyone could look in different rooms for then that might help? Or maybe do something like every person needs to find a sock or something?
Great way to take a break and get moving to work off the excess energy and help kids to refocus on their work. Thanks!
Love the indoor scavenger hunt! I teach English as a foreign language at school but also do some home tutoring to young learners so this is wonderful for practising vocab, colours etc. in a fun way! Thank you!
