Who’s ready for a Halloween Scavenger Hunt? This year is going to be a bit different for Halloween and trick-or-treating. We are still decorating, but instead of trick or treating, we will be doing a Neighborhood Halloween Scavenger Hunt.
Last year we did a Christmas decoration scavenger hunt, and my kids loved it. So, I thought a Halloween version would be fun, too. Like us, man of our neighbors are pretty good about decorating for Halloween.

How do you play a Neighborhood Halloween Scavenger Hunt?
If you live in a place where there aren’t many Halloween displays, then you can always find another neighborhood that has Halloween decorations.
You can get clipboards from the Dollar Tree. We do these scavenger hunts one of two ways.
- We drive around a neighborhood, and I give each kid a pencil to mark off what they see as we drive around.
- Or, we walk the neighborhood after dark checking out all the cool Halloween decorations and bring the list with us.
Whoever finishes first is the winner!
