Spring Flower Nature Scavenger Hunt

March 17, 2016 By Thaleia 5 Comments

Signs of Spring are starting to pop up all over the place! Just a week ago I caught some Mourning Doves building a nest in our large Maple Tree. The only other signs of Spring in our yard are Winter Crocus that have been popping up. I decided we should take a walk around the block on a Spring Flower nature scavenger hunt.

We grabbed our magnifying glasses, batman costume, jackets, rain boots, the puppy and off we headed. I was actually surprised at the lack of Spring flowers around our neighborhood. I know it’s not technically Spring for a few more days but I was hoping to see some buds on bushes or a few flowers blooming.

What better way to practice letter recognition then with a plastic egg letter recognition hunt! Princess hid the eggs around the living room since it was under 30 degrees outside and muddy in the backyard. Big Red and Lil’ Red both had fun hunting for the eggs.

After all of the eggs were collected it was time to crack them open to see which letter was inside. I used tiny letter erasers that I have had for years along with a laminated alphabet mat. I created the alphabet mat with small 1″ vinyl letters on black construction paper.
