Review: A great idea! - This book is so much fun! It is a great way to get out and explore nature. In these times,where people are cooped up,it is a safe way to bring family together and break from boredom...plus you can send one to.a friend of family to compete with on line! Make your own rules,like instead of gathering items,take a pic of you with the item. A lso,you can make an urban version,take a pic with a public mailbox,a cop car, a flagpole, a lifeguard station,a church,etc. The possibilities are endless. Get out and walk,or take a drive. I have used this book for years,I do a scavenger hunt every Thanksgiving,because i m a vegetarian and don't celebrate..So this gives us something to look forward to.
Review: Not just for kids! - Full grown woman here! I love this book! I've been using it to make collages incorporating found objects. I'm getting a lot out of this as an adult by using it as a prompt/exercise book. I'm also having fun with the scavenging process! I sliced off the bottom portion of the book using a straight edge and an Xacto, so the prompts would be easier to flip through. I noticed when first gathering items, that they acted like bookmarks, giving me the same prompts over and over as I "randomly" flipped to a page. This also means I'll have a little flipbook of prompts, even when I'm done (it also means I need to renumber the pages so I can use the table of contents to find where each item goes! Lol!)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Acceptable form of hoarding
*by E***H on August 24, 2024*

This book is perfect for your inner goblin. Like collecting little scraps of things because you see the beauty and potential each piece holds? This is the book for you! I keep an envelope in the back to put small things in until I have time to sit down and actually create things with them based on the prompts. It’s helpful to snap a photo of the scavenger hunt list in the back to check if your interesting finds meet any of the criteria for a collection page. Other than that, I suggest you share this experience with a fellow goblin to make it more fun as you share your finds and alterations.
