Let’s Go on a Back to School Scavenger Hunt Printable!
Hey lovely mamas!
Is anyone else feeling that mix of excitement (and maybe just a pinch of overwhelm) that comes with the back-to-school season? The new uniforms, the school shoes that somehow don’t fit even though you only bought them 3 months ago, and the endless labelling of everything from water bottles to wellies. Yep… it’s that time of year again!
But instead of getting bogged down in the to-do list, I’ve created a little something to bring some fun into the chaos—a Back to School Scavenger Hunt that you can download and print right now! 🎉
Whether your little ones are starting reception or heading into Year 6, this printable is a fab way to get them excited about the new school year without even realising they’re getting organised. It’s like sneaky parenting at its best—fun + prep = winning at life.
📝 What’s in the Scavenger Hunt?
It’s packed with cute school-themed items for your kids to find around the house or during a shopping trip. Think pencils, lunchboxes, glue sticks, new school shoes—you know, all the stuff we’re panic-buying anyway. You can use it as a tick-off checklist or turn it into a full-on game with prizes (chocolate buttons always work in our house 😅).
👩👧 Perfect for…
- A weekend activity when you need to burn off that back-to-school buzz
- Keeping little hands busy while you try to cover books or fill in that never-ending paperwork
- A fun ice-breaker for younger siblings who are just starting school

Let me know how your little ones get on—I’d love to see photos or hear about any funny items they “found” that definitely weren’t on the list (looking at you, half-eaten biscuit under the sofa…).
Here’s to a smooth start to the school year—with a little fun thrown in! 💖
Love,
