gofindit too The original outdoor nature scavenger hunt card game for kids and families Age 3+ Travel pocket game (Original)

We take this set to restaurants, the park, hospital appointments etc. great fun and passes the time when waiting. Great indoor and outdoors, stimulated imagination.

To be honest, I’ve been unsure about buying this game for a while, as it is fundamentally a scavenger hunt which you could do without paying out just under £9. However, this week I got the bullet and bought it and I’m really glad I did. I used it yesterday for the first time with a small group of 4-10 year olds, they all got involved, both in the hunt and wanting to read out the card and shout ‘go find it!’ Whilst I appreciate that you could make this at home or just print off a scavenger hunt, for me, having a small deck of cards which can be popped in your rucksack, grabbed to play in the garden or packed with the camping gear is really convenient. Because of the great design even the smaller children who can’t read can see what needs finding. I can see so many possibilities of using this product with my small group of nature hunters, using a few cards at a time to make it a bit more complex for the older children, using the cards to determine the order of a nature mandala or nature art, using them for treasure hunt clues etc. With more possibilities and versatility as the seasons change.

The idea of the game is lovely - I was just surprised at the small size of the cards and also not that many cards in the pack for the price. It was supposed to be on of my daughter's main gifts but it is so small that it will now be used as a stocking filler instead. It does come in a lovely little natural looking bag which is great. It is a shame though that the cards are wrapped in plastic and then the whole little bag in another plastic bag - too much plastic! This could be a great eco-gift and getting kids to enjoy playing out in nature if only the packaging came with less unnecessary single-use plastic. Overall, excited to play this with the kids.

I absolutely love the concept of this, and it really works in practice. It slips into a bag easily and is then always available if your children/class need a bit of encouragement walking.I usually give out one card per child but you could show a card to all of them, it will say something like 'soft' and then they all run off hunting for something soft. It makes for some great discussions about what they find and encourages a deeper connection with our surroundings.

Really impressed with this, so simple but really effective.The idea is straightforward enough... Its essentially a pack of cards, each with one word on and the players have to find items that match the word (I. E. Green, bumpy, small etc).Even with the same cards, it will be a different game every time you play it in a different location as the available objects will change. Even though its for outdoors, we've played it in the house and still had fun.The cards come with some suggested rules for different games ranging from finding a single object per card to competing against each other with multiple cards to see who finds them the fastest and there's even a version where you have to take multiple cards but only find a single object that matches all the words.

Like others have said, these cards are small but they are good quality and the premise for using them is simple yet highly engaging. There are a few suggestions for how to use the cards supplied in the pack. A wide range of vocabulary is introduced to prompt children to engage with the natural world and look closely at what is around them. I have used this both with a class of children on scavenger hunts in our outdoor learning sessions, as well as with my own children and the different combinations of cards mean you can use them on a simple to an increasingly-challenging level.

The concept of this game is FANTASTIC. I wasn't expecting it to be so small. Its basically a pack of cards and that's all....in a cotton pouch. BUT, the concept of the game is brilliant so its worth the current cost at just under a fiver. The postage is pretty outrageous for such a small package pulling the overall cost above nine quid but I'm still giving the game itself five stars because its lots of fun.I have modified the game a little. I purchased some plain cotton shopping bags to match the pouch to sew a card pocked onto the front. This way, I can give the kids 5 or more cards in their pocket and they can hunt and collect and return with their bag of goodies. I'm also making more cards and laminating them to add to our game, of animals and creatures and things way up high and am giving them a cheap camera to put in their pocket to take pictures of the things we cant touch and they can print them when we get home. For pure inspiration alone, this game is fabulous and will teach the children to recognise words. We love it.

This was an add on gift. A little expensive but it is a great quick game for those with little children/adventures
