I created this game for my kids and it was a complete hit! They have been making me create clues to play again and again. This scavenger hunt is basically hide and seek but with clues. The Gingerbread Man leaves behind cute clue cards to give the kids hints at where he might be hiding. They follow the hunt from clue to clue as they chase the Gingerbread Man through the house. I created a digital printable with everything you need to play the game! Download the full customizable printable game on Etsy.

I wanted the gingerbread man to look like a cookie and have durable cards that would last. I was thinking about laminating the cards, but I found this Kraft cardstock and decided to try it out. I was so impressed with the results. I used a standard brother inkvestment tank printer and this was the result.

How to Play

The game is very simple but a lot of fun. Use the included 12 clues or come up with your own. Each clue should lead to an item in the house or outside that the kids can easily find. At the location of the next item, put the next clue face down so they can easily spot the "From the Gingerbread Man" message. Alternatively you can put the clues in colorful envelopes to help them stand out. These envelopes from Amazon are just the right size to slide in your clue cards! Hide the Gingerbread Man & the "You Found Me!" card at the final hiding spot. Your kids will want to play again and again as they try to catch the Gingerbread Man. Our included editable printable is simple to use. Use Adobe's free Adobe Reader to open the editable PDF. Simply click on the text field and add your own text. You can customize and print the game again and again.
