This past Saturday my oldest daughter, De'yanna turned 15. She wanted to keep it simple so we decided on a mall scavenger hunt. I found the cutest credit card style invitation from
http://www.diva-girl-parties-and-stuff.com/ that was a free printable and laminated them.

Then I made up the hunt list and passed them out at the mall to each girl giving them an hour to complete the list. All the girls had to participate and they had to bring back pictures, which would add up to the amount that would be given to my daughter to shop with. The main items were $20-$30 and there were a few bonuses that were $5 each.
They were off and back before the hour was up. To my surprise the hardest one for them to find was a fast food menu(which was only a $5 bonus), but they were determined to complete the list and that they did. They had so much fun with this and still had enough time to shop before meeting up with more friends to go out for dinner. This is a great idea for tweens/teens since they love to shop and they can have fun with their friends. For the most part the store associates were very helpful to the girls but there were a few that turned their noses at them and said no(what party poopers). They have lots of list ideas online but I would come up with my own because they were kind of boring to me. There are also other types of scavenger hunt ideas online if your child is not into shopping. Whichever idea you decide on your child is bound to have fun......and you will get a kick out of the pictures.
