Reader’s Scavenger Hunt with Laura!

Going for a walk, either in the neighbourhood or on a path, can be an enriching, learning experience for a young child. Integrating a scavenger hunt can help your child engage, become more observant, and practice some reading! Here are lists of words, according to the reading level of your Casa child. Some of the words are more suited for a neighbourhood stroll and some are more suited for a nature walk. Please click “view” for more details and examples of words. Happy hunting!
