How a Snappit scavenger hunt works

1

Pick a place

Choose a park or trail near you. Snappit has guides for thousands of parks, each with a checklist of species other explorers have spotted there.

2

See what can be found

Before you head out, browse the checklist together — birds, flowers, trees, insects — so kids know exactly what they’re hunting for.

3

Hunt, snap, and collect

When kids spot something, they photograph it in the app. Snappit identifies it and turns it into a collectible card with a rarity tier — the reward for every find.

A taste of what’s out there to find

Every species in the Snappit field guide is a card waiting to be collected — over 9,000 of them, from backyard regulars to legendary finds.

Why it beats a printable scavenger hunt

A paper checklist is done in twenty minutes. Snappit turns every walk, hike, and park visit into a new round of the same ongoing game.

Real rewards for every find

Instead of ticking a box, kids earn a collectible card with rarity tiers from common to legendary, traits, and kid-friendly facts.

A new challenge every day

The daily discovery challenge gives kids something specific to hunt for, so today’s walk never feels like yesterday’s.

Themed collections to complete

Collections group finds into sets to finish — a built-in scavenger hunt list that grows with your family’s curiosity.
