Elf Scavenger Hunt
The elves have been busy. They hid the presents and left a trail of rhyming clues all over the house. This printable elf scavenger hunt turns Christmas morning (or any December afternoon) into a treasure hunt: each clue leads to the next hiding spot, and the last one sends the kids to the tree.
The clues rhyme and are short enough for early readers, so kids from about 4 to 10 can play. Little ones team up with an older sibling or a grown-up who reads along.
What’s inside
- 12 rhyming clue cards with cheerful elf illustrations, 4 per page
- A clue guide for parents with every hiding spot at a glance
- Blank elf cards to write your own clues
You get two PDF files: one in US Letter and one in A4.
How it works
- Buy it. The download link is on your screen right away and in your inbox a minute later.
- Print the cards and cut them out.
- Check the clue guide and hide each card in the spot the clue before it points to. Keep clue 1 to hand out.
- Give the kids the first clue and let the hunt begin.
The hiding spots are everyday places like the shoe rack, the dining table, a bookshelf and the fridge. Is one of them a no-go in your home? Grab a blank card and write your own clue. That’s also how you add a stop for a stocking or a second present.
