Independence Day - 4th July Scavenger Hunt

Looking for a way to keep the kids occupied on Jult 4th for Independence day? Then look no further we have you covered with our free printable July 4th scavenger hunt. All you need is a printer. A scavenger hunt is a fun way to encourage children to practice using their observation skills while keeping them busy at your 4th July celebration.

Our scavenger hunts work for younger children of kindergarten age as they have pictures, but for older children, they also have the words, so it is great for letter recognition too and this is a fun and simple Independance Day Activity.

This is a brilliant classroom activity or for youth groups and to increase durability and longevity, laminate the sheet and use a washable marker or dry-erase marker then the check marks can be wiped right off and this can be reused year after year.

Don't miss out on the Independence Day festivities this year! Our Printable 4th of July Scavenger Hunt is fun-packed. Perfect for solo play or gatherings with family and friends.

I always print my printables directly onto 160 gsm cardstock using my Epson Ecotank Printer rather than regular paper, this way they are a little more durable and the pens do not bleed through to the other side. However, if you do not have a home printer then just pop to a library and use theirs.
