Scavenger hunt at the public library

Take your young women to the public library for a scavenger hunt.  Pair the girls up and turn them loose with a list of information to locate.  They were allowed to ask the librarian one question.  Some of the things they had to do were: 

  • locate a book by its call number and write down the title and author
  • find a certain book by a certain author and read it aloud with their partner
  • find out how many books in the library contain a key word
  • list the dates and times for story time
  • list fines for overdue books
  • count how many different newspapers are available in the library
  • list 3 books written by a certain author, etc.

Each answer was certain amount of points.  The tie breaker was extra points for those who had a library card of their own.
