Building a Scavenger Hunt for Kids of Rome
I am trying to build a scavenger hunt for my twin 9 year old girls for our trip to Rome. My goal is to make the sites more relevant and interactive. I would like to have different questions or tasks for each of the following sites. Coliseum, Vatican, Vatican Museum, Roman Forum. Does anyone have any good resources for this or ideas of good questions or things for them to find on our visit to the sites? Thank you

Yes I love that thread. Thank you. I am also trying to make each site its own game where they will learn about the artifacts and ,honestly, not get bored as we walk through them.
I want questions that will make them think about what they are looking at keep them occupied.

There's a guidebook called Rome with Kids, by J.M. Pasquesi, that I would highly recommend for this purpose, as well as navigating Rome more generally with kids. Though organized as a guidebook, it is also peppered with questions and kid-friendly activities for each site. It has other great sightseeing tips as well, bearing in mind the shorter attention spans and likely interests of kids. Good luck!
