We would simply print out a new gnome for the door when one was completely covered in stickers. The kids enjoyed seeing the gnome army that was starting to form all over our doors!

The gnome hunt was the big hit, but the other "check out a book" aspect was a flop ::sad face:: I'm still trying to figure out how to get parents excited about passive programs that take a little more effort than letting their children go on scavenger hunts. Thanks again for the great ideas!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5287352720755635034.post-50280430650146370922013-11-06T15:07:07.622-05:002013-11-06T15:07:07.622-05:00I LOVE IT!

So far it's been a wild success - thank you so much for sharing!!! I posted about it on my blog here http://wp.me/p2N1aX-f2 and was sure to give you credit for such a great idea. I'll be sure to update you on how it went after Gnomevember's over.

We still are getting asked about it almost a month later. I liked being able to share how many people participated with the staff. I think it showed that even 30 seconds of their time to explain the game affected a lot of people in a month. We'll definitely be reusing this idea again with a different theme.Brookehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02818103170864626274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5287352720755635034.post-91884913822868144252013-09-17T08:57:51.289-04:002013-09-17T08:57:51.289-04:00We do something very similar here every month, a c...We do something very similar here every month, a clip art scavenger hunt. The kids LOVE it. We don't track the numbers but maybe we should? Now I'm curious how many do it a month here. Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06851816764938946226noreply@blogger.com
