Hi friends!<\/p>\n

If you follow me on Instagram<\/a>, I’m sure you already know all about our 100 Mile Summer challenge, but just in case you don’t, lemme fill you in!<\/p>\n

At the beginning of the summer, I made it my mission to get my kids outside for at least a little bit every day. We have a perfect one-mile loop around our neighborhood which is nice.<\/p>\n

So together, we set a goal to walk\/ride\/scooter\/stroll 100 miles over the course of the summer. <\/p>\n

This weekend we hit 75 miles! School starts August 15th so we have until then to knock out the last 25. It hasn’t always been easy to get them out the door. But honestly, it has pretty much become a daily habit at this point so they rarely put up too much of a fight. Sometimes they’re content to ride their bikes or scooters or just sit in the stroller. My 4.5-year-old isn’t allowed in the stroller. He has to be physically moving. But some days they need a little something to keep their interest. <\/p>\n

Enter scavenger hunts. We use them to help distract the kids, make the walks more exciting and engage their brains!<\/p>\n

Here are some of the different types of scavenger hunts we’ve done so far and a few we haven’t tried yet.<\/p>\n
