Autumn is a lovely time to get out and do a treasure hunt -spotting all sorts of animals and insects.

How to make your autumn treasure hunt extra fun

  • Why not offer small prizes for everything on the list that's collected?
  • Take photos on your phone while you're out, or once back home of all the things you've found
  • Make a little 'art display' and do a drawing of some, or all, of the things you found on your treasure hunt
