Photo Hunt
For Your Family

This activity is a fun way to share family photos with your kids.

A photo hunt is sure to get them involved and excited about learning about your family history. This is a great rainy day activity or one to do on a road trip.

Gather together a bunch of photos from family vacations, some black and white photos from back in the day, photos of your pets, etc. It's fun to include pictures of family members your kids may not know or remember and some that have funny stories or memories attached to them. And then start hunting!
