Nothing like a good ol’ fashioned snipe hunt… Though simple in concept, this game has already provided hours of entertainment to my kids, ages 7 and 3. The snipes are cute and make chirping noises as long as they remain out of their nest and unfound. Chirping becomes more frequent and their eyes start flashing as time passes.In our house, this game is possible for kids to play by themselves, but adults actually WANT to join in. It’s like an Easter egg hunt with WAY more possible hiding places. Because the snipes make noise to draw you to them, kids can use their ears and eyes to hunt and still be successful even when the snipes are hiding in really tricky spots. Usually, we modify the rules by sending the kids to hunt together after an adult has hidden the snipes. After one snipe is returned to its home and the hunters head out to find the second one, the first snipe “runs away” and must be found again. I would rather play Snipe Hunt than have to engage in hide and seek any day.
Even older kids and adults love it! I’m 17 years old, and my siblings and I recently went to a birthday party for a friend who just turned 6. We played this game while there, and it was the funnest one I have ever played! Even our pastor (who is in his 40’s) and the child’s dad was playing and laughing too. We played boys against girls (the girls won most of the rounds), and it worked really well. Hint: put the snipe in a sock, then put that in a sock, etc. It makes it harder to hear, and you won’t see the eyes flashing. It works well for older kids. 🙂 No matter how old you are, you will enjoy this game(unless you don’t like fun. ;).
