If you\u2019re playing in the office with an in-person team, make sure you include lists of objects found in an office. If you\u2019re playing with a remote team, these can be household objects. You can play this game with single player teams, or you can split your employees into smaller teams and give them 2 to 5 minutes to collect all the objects. The first team, or single player, back is crowned the winner. Play as many rounds as you like, ensuring that each round requires your team to collect different objects.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Now you know how to play a scavenger hunt, you may be wondering how to make it fun and offer a motivating incentive. You may wonder whether you should award prizes to scavenger hunt winners, and what types of prizes are acceptable.

However, scavenger hunts by themselves do not always cut it as effective team building activities. To get the most out of scavenger hunts, offering prizes can be very important. Here are three reasons why:<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-reason-1-communication\">Reason #1 &#8211; Communication<\/h3>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Scavenger hunts alone are incredibly useful for promoting effective workplace communication because employees, who wouldn\u2019t normally work together, form a team where they are required to share information and trust each other.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Offering prizes further encourages effective workplace communication because they provide a team with the motivation to complete the scavenger hunt. Prizes also often involve spending time together as a team, which further enhances communication. Effective workplace communication is important because it generates <a href=\"https:\/\/teamstage.io\/teamwork-statistics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">4.5 times higher talent retention<\/a>. This means workplaces are spending less money and energy on recruiting new talent and, as a result, have more engagement and productivity.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/teambuildinghub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/cartoon-team-member-communicating-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"cartoon team member communicating\" class=\"wp-image-251459\" srcset=\"https:\/\/teambuildinghub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/cartoon-team-member-communicating-980x653.webp 980w, https:\/\/teambuildinghub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/cartoon-team-member-communicating-480x320.webp 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-reason-2-promotes-problem-solving\">Reason #2 &#8211; Promotes problem-solving<\/h3>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Good problem-solving skills allow employees, of any level, to think of new ideas and come up with better ways of doing things. A workplace team armed with problem-solvers is a workplace team that can face and overcome all types of challenges, work efficiently, and has a smooth operation.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Scavenger hunts foster problem-solving skills by encouraging employees to think outside the box and use their brains to find objects within a time frame. Employees might not know exactly what they\u2019re looking for or where to find it, but they can use their problem-solving skills to find the place where it is most likely to be. The added bonus of prizes encourages team members to use their problem-solving skills better than ever to become winners!<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-reason-3-leadership\">Reason #3 Leadership<\/h3>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Every team needs a strong leader. Without one, turnover is high, productivity is low and cohesion is none existent. Scavenger hunts are great ways to highlight natural leaders. They also allow team members to have the opportunity to delegate tasks and help others, which can enhance their leadership skills. By including prizes, leaders will have a goal to work towards and motivate their team to meet.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/teambuildinghub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/cartoon-leader-pointing-team-forward-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"cartoon leader pointing team forward\" class=\"wp-image-251461\" srcset=\"https:\/\/teambuildinghub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/cartoon-leader-pointing-team-forward-980x653.webp 980w, https:\/\/teambuildinghub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/cartoon-leader-pointing-team-forward-480x320.webp 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-free-scavenger-hunt-prize-ideas-for-the-office\">Free Scavenger Hunt Prize Ideas for the Office<\/h2>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Less is often more, meaning that you don\u2019t always want to overdo office Scavenger hunts by offering huge prizes. Scavenger hunts can be played on a budget because prizes that cost absolutely nothing can still be engaging and motivating.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-1-create-a-wall-of-fame\">1. Create a wall of fame<\/h3>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Creating a wall of fame is a completely free adult scavenger hunt prize idea. All you need is some post-it notes and a blank wall. Every time you play a scavenger hunt with your team (yes, we suggest playing them once a month), add a post-it note to the wall of fame with the winning team&#8217;s name on it. To make this extra special, you could even get the winning team to add an inspirational quote.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-2-send-the-winners-an-inspirational-quote\">2. Send the winners an inspirational quote<\/h3>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Inspirational quotes such as \u201c<em>knowledge is power, but enthusiasm pulls the switch<\/em>\u201d are perfect for inspiring and motivating a group of people. After a scavenger hunt, send the winning player or team of players an inspirational quote over an email. To close the email off, reiterate how well they did and how they can apply their new communication and problem-solving skills to their work life.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-3-give-a-linkedin-shout-out\">3. Give a LinkedIn shout out<\/h3>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Post a picture and fun caption of whichever player or team wins the scavenger hunt on LinkedIn. LinkedIn shout-outs are great team prize ideas for scavenger hunts because not only do they make your winning players feel noticed and accomplished, but they also show the rest of the world that your organization is invested in team building, creating a strong company culture, and celebrating success.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-4-a-week-of-longer-lunch-breaks\">4.

This scavenger hunt prize idea for adults helps with knowledge sharing within your organization, which is important because sharing knowledge offers a competitive advantage by encouraging increased communication, collaboration, innovation, and productivity.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>On top of this, a recent study from<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mckinsey.com\/industries\/technology-media-and-telecommunications\/our-insights\/the-social-economy?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=2.helpjuice.comadmin\/questions\/knowledge-sharing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> McKinsey<\/a> found that employees spend 20% of their working week just searching for information to complete their daily tasks.

Afternoon tea at a fancy restaurant<\/h3>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Slightly less hair-raising than the above two options, a great team prize for a scavenger hunt is to book afternoon tea in a high-end restaurant for the winners. This prize also allows team members to hang out away from work, meaning they will be more relaxed and will hopefully learn to trust each other and connect on a deeper level.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-6-plan-an-escape-room\">6.

Although they are fantastic ways of building communication, developing problem-solving, and highlighting leaders, there is something that needs to be considered.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>For example, you need to consider <strong>accessibility<\/strong><em>. <\/em>If you have any disabled or injured team members, you need to consider how they can join in the scavenger hunt. Perhaps, you could add extra time for wheelchair users to gather all the objects (making sure that everything can be reached by wheelchair), or you could get other team members to do the running and those who cannot walk, for whatever reason, to do the instructing.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>You also need to consider the risks involved with naming winners. Although for many, friendly competition is healthy and motivating, it can be uninspiring and worrying for others. To rule out making people feel demotivated and negative there are many things you can do, such as:<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Playing best out of 3 games. This gives teams plenty of chances to win and ensures that one team doesn\u2019t dominate the whole game.<\/li>\n<li>Offering prizes for second and third place (or even giving everyone a prize for taking part!)<\/li>\n<li>Carefully splitting the teams so that not all the competitive players are on one team<\/li>\n<li>Presenting the game in a way that isn\u2019t focused purely on winning<\/li>\n<li>Playing the scavenger hunt games often and mixing the teams up so that everyone has a fair chance of winning.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/teambuildinghub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/cartoon-of-winning-team-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"cartoon of winning team\" class=\"wp-image-251468\" srcset=\"https:\/\/teambuildinghub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/cartoon-of-winning-team-980x653.webp 980w, https:\/\/teambuildinghub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/cartoon-of-winning-team-480x320.webp 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-conclusion\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s a wrap on the 24 best prize ideas for scavenger hunts.

However, scavenger hunts by themselves do not always cut it as effective team building activities. To get the most out of scavenger hunts, offering prizes can be very important. Here are three reasons why:&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading {\"level\":3} -->\n<h3 id=\"h-reason-1-communication\">Reason #1 - Communication&nbsp;<\/h3>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Scavenger hunts alone are incredibly useful for promoting effective workplace communication because employees, who wouldn\u2019t normally work together, form a team where they are required to share information and trust each other.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Offering prizes further encourages effective workplace communication because they provide a team with the motivation to complete the scavenger hunt. Prizes also often involve spending time together as a team, which further enhances communication. Effective workplace communication is important because it generates <a href=\"https:\/\/teamstage.io\/teamwork-statistics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">4.5 times higher talent retention<\/a>. This means workplaces are spending less money and energy on recruiting new talent and, as a result, have more engagement and productivity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:image {\"id\":251459,\"sizeSlug\":\"large\",\"linkDestination\":\"none\"} -->\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img src=\"https:\/\/teambuildinghub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/cartoon-team-member-communicating-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"cartoon team member communicating\" class=\"wp-image-251459\"\/><\/figure>\n<!-- \/wp:image -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading {\"level\":3} -->\n<h3 id=\"h-reason-2-promotes-problem-solving\">Reason #2 - Promotes problem-solving<\/h3>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Good problem-solving skills allow employees, of any level, to think of new ideas and come up with better ways of doing things. A workplace team armed with problem-solvers is a workplace team that can face and overcome all types of challenges, work efficiently, and has a smooth operation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Scavenger hunts foster problem-solving skills by encouraging employees to think outside the box and use their brains to find objects within a time frame. Employees might not know exactly what they\u2019re looking for or where to find it, but they can use their problem-solving skills to find the place where it is most likely to be. The added bonus of prizes encourages team members to use their problem-solving skills better than ever to become winners!&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading {\"level\":3} -->\n<h3 id=\"h-reason-3-leadership\">Reason #3 Leadership<\/h3>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Every team needs a strong leader. Without one, turnover is high, productivity is low and cohesion is none existent. Scavenger hunts are great ways to highlight natural leaders. They also allow team members to have the opportunity to delegate tasks and help others, which can enhance their leadership skills. By including prizes, leaders will have a goal to work towards and motivate their team to meet.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:image {\"id\":251461,\"sizeSlug\":\"large\",\"linkDestination\":\"none\"} -->\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img src=\"https:\/\/teambuildinghub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/cartoon-leader-pointing-team-forward-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"cartoon leader pointing team forward\" class=\"wp-image-251461\"\/><\/figure>\n<!-- \/wp:image -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2 id=\"h-free-scavenger-hunt-prize-ideas-for-the-office\">Free Scavenger Hunt Prize Ideas for the Office<\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Less is often more, meaning that you don\u2019t always want to overdo office Scavenger hunts by offering huge prizes.

Create a wall of fame<\/h3>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Creating a wall of fame is a completely free adult scavenger hunt prize idea. All you need is some post-it notes and a blank wall. Every time you play a scavenger hunt with your team (yes, we suggest playing them once a month), add a post-it note to the wall of fame with the winning team's name on it. To make this extra special, you could even get the winning team to add an inspirational quote.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading {\"level\":3} -->\n<h3 id=\"h-2-send-the-winners-an-inspirational-quote\">2.

Skydive<\/h3>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Suitable for the real adrenaline junkies in your team, if your budget allows it then a skydive is an excellent scavenger hunt prize. It pushes your team outside of their comfort zone and will encourage them to trust and communicate with others.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:image {\"id\":251467,\"sizeSlug\":\"full\",\"linkDestination\":\"none\"} -->\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img src=\"https:\/\/teambuildinghub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/team-members-skydiving.webp\" alt=\"team members skydiving\" class=\"wp-image-251467\"\/><\/figure>\n<!-- \/wp:image -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading {\"level\":3} -->\n<h3 id=\"h-4-sports-car-day\">4.

Whether you\u2019re letting them drive a Ferrari or a Porsche, this day out will leave them feeling excited and appreciated.

Afternoon tea at a fancy restaurant&nbsp;<\/h3>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Slightly less hair-raising than the above two options, a great team prize for a scavenger hunt is to book afternoon tea in a high-end restaurant for the winners. This prize also allows team members to hang out away from work, meaning they will be more relaxed and will hopefully learn to trust each other and connect on a deeper level.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading {\"level\":3} -->\n<h3 id=\"h-6-plan-an-escape-room\">6.

Give them the rest of the afternoon off&nbsp;<\/h3>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Although this sounds inexpensive, it can become costly as you will be having to pay employees when they are not contributing anything to the business. However, it is also incredibly beneficial as a prize because it helps to reduce burnout and allows employees to relax. To make this work, play your scavenger hunt in the early afternoon and then give the winning team the rest of the afternoon off, which is likely to only be a couple of hours anyway.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading {\"level\":3} -->\n<h3 id=\"h-8-a-career-planning-session-with-an-expert\">8.

Although they are fantastic ways of building communication, developing problem-solving, and highlighting leaders, there is something that needs to be considered.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>For example, you need to consider <strong>accessibility<\/strong><em>. <\/em>If you have any disabled or injured team members, you need to consider how they can join in the scavenger hunt. Perhaps, you could add extra time for wheelchair users to gather all the objects (making sure that everything can be reached by wheelchair), or you could get other team members to do the running and those who cannot walk, for whatever reason, to do the instructing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>You also need to consider the risks involved with naming winners. Although for many, friendly competition is healthy and motivating, it can be uninspiring and worrying for others. To rule out making people feel demotivated and negative there are many things you can do, such as:&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:list -->\n<ul><li>Playing best out of 3 games. This gives teams plenty of chances to win and ensures that one team doesn\u2019t dominate the whole game.<\/li><li>Offering prizes for second and third place (or even giving everyone a prize for taking part!)<\/li><li>Carefully splitting the teams so that not all the competitive players are on one team<\/li><li>Presenting the game in a way that isn\u2019t focused purely on winning<\/li><li>Playing the scavenger hunt games often and mixing the teams up so that everyone has a fair chance of winning.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n<!-- \/wp:list -->\n\n<!-- wp:image {\"id\":251468,\"sizeSlug\":\"large\",\"linkDestination\":\"none\"} -->\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img src=\"https:\/\/teambuildinghub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/cartoon-of-winning-team-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"cartoon of winning team\" class=\"wp-image-251468\"\/><\/figure>\n<!-- \/wp:image -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2 id=\"h-conclusion\">Conclusion&nbsp;<\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>That\u2019s a wrap on the 24 best prize ideas for scavenger hunts.
