Tu B'Shvat Scavenger Hunt

Written by: Cleveland

Suggested Age: Chevraya Aleph

Goals: to continue our focus on Tu B'shvat

Suitable for Shabbat (requires prior preparation)

Materials: below key (Suggested), envelopes prepared with letters that belong to the name of a fruit (one for each place), a prize/snack for the end

Instructions for the Scavenger hunt: Right after Mifkad you will receive on envelope with letters and a piece of paper. This piece of paper will be your key. There will be a name of fruit and next to it there will be the place that that fruit leads you.

The letters will make up the name of a fruit but the kids have to unscramble the letters to make the name of the fruit. The fruit might be in Hebrew or English.

Stage 4: Take the kids on the scavenger hunt by the same process as above--You get the scrambled letters the kids unscramble it once it is unscrambled look up the fruit on the list to see what place it refers to and go to that place and begin the process over again.

Stage 5: I hope by the end of the scavenger hunt it will be time for shira but if not take your kids back to your normal room and play a game.

Good Luck and Shabbat Shalom!
