What’s Included in the Free Squishy Toy Scavenger Hunt?

This printable scavenger hunt includes two parts:

Scavenger Hunt Cards

Print one scavenger hunt card for each child who is playing.

Each card has pictures of the squishy toys the kids will be searching for.

The squishy toys featured in the game include:

  • Sparkly squishy toy dumplings
  • Squishy gummy bear
  • Squishy cake
  • Squeeezy butter
  • Gumdrop
  • Squeeezy banana
  • Needoh Nice-Sicle
  • Needoh Fuzzball
  • Needoh Nice Cream

Kids use their card to mark off each squishy card as they find it.

Hidden Squishy Cards

The printable also includes a resource page with the squishy cards that you’ll cut out and hide.

Each card represents one of the squishy toys on the scavenger hunt cards.

Once you’ve cut them out, hide the cards around your playing area.

How to Play the Squishy Toy Scavenger Hunt

The game is very simple to set up!

1. Print the Scavenger Hunt Cards

Print one scavenger hunt card for every child playing.

For example, if you have four kids playing, print four scavenger hunt cards.

2. Print the Hidden Squishy Cards

Print the resource page containing the squishy toy cards.

Cut out each card.

These are the cards you’ll hide for the kids to find.

3. Hide the Cards

Hide the squishy cards around your playing area.

You can hide them around one room, throughout the house, outside, or wherever you’re playing.

For younger kids, keep the cards in easier-to-spot places.

For older kids, make the hiding spots a little more challenging!

4. Start the Hunt!

Give every player their own scavenger hunt card.

Kids can search for the hidden squishy cards.

When they find one, they look at the picture and mark that squishy off on their scavenger hunt card.

5. Put the Card Back!

Here’s the important part:

When a player finds a hidden squishy card, they put it back exactly where they found it.

Kids aren’t collecting or taking the hidden cards. They’re simply finding them, marking their own scavenger hunt card, and returning the card to its hiding place.

This allows every player to find and mark off the same hidden cards.

6. Keep Searching

Kids continue searching until they’ve found all of the squishy toys on their scavenger hunt card.

You can have everyone work at their own pace or turn it into a friendly race to see who can find everything first!

A Fun Indoor Scavenger Hunt for Kids

This squishy scavenger hunt is especially fun because kids don’t need to own any of the actual squishy toys to play.

The printable cards are the game.

You simply hide the cards, and kids use their own scavenger hunt sheet to keep track of what they’ve found.

That makes this an easy activity to set up for a group of kids.

Perfect for Babysitters and Nannies

This is a great activity to keep in your babysitting or nanny activity collection.

You can print multiple scavenger hunt cards ahead of time and keep them ready for a day when the kids need something fun to do.

It also works well because the game gets kids up and moving rather than sitting at a screen.

For younger kids, keep the cards in obvious hiding places.

For older kids, make the hunt more challenging by hiding the cards in less obvious locations.

Make It a Squishy Birthday Party Game

This scavenger hunt is especially fun for a squishy-themed birthday party.

Print a scavenger hunt card for each guest and hide the squishy cards around the party area.

Kids can search for all nine squishy toys while they move around and play.

Because the hidden cards are returned after they’re found, multiple children can participate in the same hunt without anyone running out of cards.
