Noah's Ark Scavenger Hunt For Kids (Genesis 6-9)

The story of Noah's Ark stretches across Genesis 6 through 9, and in Sunday school it is easy for kids to lose the thread halfway through. This printable scavenger hunt walks your class through the whole story piece by piece, so every part lands.

Kids learn about the wickedness of the world, Noah's faith and obedience, the building of the ark, the animals entering, the forty days of rain, the dove and the olive leaf, Noah's worship, and God's rainbow covenant. Each clue reinforces the truth that God judges sin, saves those who trust and obey Him, and always keeps His promises. They are up and moving while they learn, which means the story stays with them longer than a worksheet would.

Prep is simple. Print the 10 clue cards, hide them around your classroom, and teach. Kids may begin at any card, and small groups, teams, or your whole class can play together. The teacher setup instructions and answer key do the heavy lifting, so you spend your time teaching instead of preparing.

How to play

• Print and hide the 10 clue cards around your classroom, church, or home.
• Kids may begin at any card. They read the passage, solve the code word prompt, and search the other cards to find the answer.
• After recording all 10 code words, they use the shaded boxes on their answer sheet to reveal the final mystery word.
