You Gifted: Scavenger Hunt

A scavenger hunt gives a day of personalized fun

Gifted Asked: What is the best gift you’ve ever given?

You Responded: “Years ago, when my husband and I were just starting out and had no money, I gave him a series of envelopes with addresses on them. Inside was a couple of dollars to spend at each location – one was a used bookstore, a funky coffee shop, dollar store and finally we met for a picnic in the park.” – Penny, Toronto

I love the creativity of this scavenger-hunt gift. It can be tailored to the giftees interests and costs next to nothing (except ingeniuty and planning time). Go big and use the city as your backdrop or create a cozy hunt around the house. It’s great for all ages. Choose a few interesting stops along the way (using clues, addresses or limericks to lure them there) then end with a big event like a meal or activity.
