Ice Cream Party Scavenger Hunt (Free Printable)
When we planned my son’s ice cream–themed birthday, I wanted a game that was fun, easy to set up, and gave the kids something to do when they needed a break from the bounce house. That’s how this printable ice cream scavenger hunt came together. When they found them all, we handed out favors in these little ice cream–themed bags at the end.
How it works
The printable includes two sheets:
- Ice cream cutouts – larger ice creams that you can print, cut, and hide around the house or yard.
- Checklist cards – smaller sheets (4 per page) where kids can check off each ice cream they find.
Kids simply grab a checklist and start hunting!
Where to use it
This scavenger hunt worked perfectly for our birthday party, but it’s flexible enough for other situations too:
Why I love it
It doesn’t take much prep, and once the ice creams are hidden, kids can play at their own pace. That makes it low-stress for parents and lots of fun for kids. Plus, it ties in perfectly with an ice cream theme without requiring any extra supplies.
You can download your free printable here and try it at your next party—or even on a rainy day at home! I’d love to see how your scavenger hunt turns out, so feel free to share a photo or tag me if you post it online.
Have fun hiding those ice creams!
