CanadianDee Posted April 23, 2015 #1 Share Posted April 23, 2015 We're working on a scavenger hunt to play onboard with our 5 year-old granddaughter. I'm hoping I can get some ideas of things to hunt for (tree, lawn/lawnchairs, lifeboat, etc.) on the Reflection. Can you help? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyntil8ing Posted April 23, 2015 #2 Share Posted April 23, 2015 My kids love participating in the scavenger hunts run by the activities staff. They usually have one each sea day. And there is swag! We have medals and other stuff we've won. The kid's club also has a family one on the final sea day. There is also a talent show and sometimes bingo. But if you want to go on your own, go to the Fun Factory once you board and ask for one of their older kid scavenger hunts. They have them for the 9 to 11's. Have fun!

I'd heard about the family scavenger hunts and we'll participate for sure, but having spent an entire day last weekend hiding and finding, hiding and finding, hiding and finding Easter eggs, I figured the more scavenger hunts aboard, the merrier. :-) Also. Who doesn't love swag?!?! She plays Bingo with us at home ... she's even affected a Bingo caller drawl. Is the Bingo onboard kid-friendly?

cyntil8ing Posted April 23, 2015 #6 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Is the Bingo onboard kid-friendly? We have only attended a free Family Bingo run by the camp counselors. We've never gone to regular bingo, but I assume anyone with the $ to play would be welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisead Posted April 23, 2015 #7 Share Posted April 23, 2015 The regular bingo is child friendly, but a parent must be with the child. BUT, it's not cheap. If I remember correctly, the cheapest cards were $30 per person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadianDee Posted April 23, 2015 Author #8 Share Posted April 23, 2015 (edited) This shouldn't be too hard to find: LOL. That’s an impressive piece of ugly. I must include it. The Secret Stairway.......Deck 12 in the spa... Oh yeah, I just found a picture of this to add to our hunt. Thanks! The regular bingo is child friendly, but a parent must be with the child. BUT, it's not cheap. If I remember correctly, the cheapest cards were $30 per person. Ouch. Hmm. We might have to bring our home version and strike up an illicit game in the Oceanview Café.

Tiggertastic Posted April 23, 2015 #9 Share Posted April 23, 2015 There is lots of different art and sculptures you can add in, some fun ones too. The gelato area or you can use the candy dispensers by the ice cream in ocean view as a reward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiggertastic Posted April 23, 2015 #10 Share Posted April 23, 2015 An extra thought, the art studio maybe useful for the hunt - time it right for her to be able to draw something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadianDee Posted April 24, 2015 Author #11 Share Posted April 24, 2015 An extra thought, the art studio maybe useful for the hunt - time it right for her to be able to draw something Yeah, the ice cream station (anywhere) is always our first search. :) Love the art studio idea ... are young kids welcome there?

dkjretired Posted April 24, 2015 #12 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Another thing which might be a little educational is have her find one of the apparatus at the that help the handicapped get into the pool. A little explanation as to what it is for would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iamthesea Posted April 24, 2015 #15 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Have her look for "chairs on a log among the birch trees." Since the child is only 5 years old, I assume that an adult will go along to help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks tons for the pics, kenevenpar and cyntil8ing - I've added them all to our hunt list. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaudiaB Posted April 24, 2015 #17 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Such a fun idea! Barrels - (Tuscan Grill) A pink purse (go to the shops) A big stack of blue towels (at the pool) M&Ms (ice cream bar) Green nail polish (spa) A flower arrangement (these are all over, of course!) You'll find some things you can add to your list the moment you walk on board. Hope it's fun for her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
