27-day Family History Scavenger Hunt
In June, I developed a 27-Day Family History Scavenger Hunt. You can find the questions at https://tinyurl.com/FHscavenger-hunt and the answers are at https://tinyurl.com/FHscavenger-hunt-answers. It was supposed to be a 30-day scavenger hunt but we had a pipe burst and I missed a few days trying to clean up the mess. This month I have started a new project. I plan on developing a series of Virtual Family History Escape Rooms. These escape rooms will walk the participants through the life of an individual while looking for clues in various record sets. I have my first one completed and it explores the mystery of my great-grandfather's birth date using the WWI and WWII draft cards, his birth register, census records, and some interesting newspaper articles about his life. You can try it out at https://forms.gle/idJDPnsdXPTkZcWK6 and provide feedback if you successfully complete it. These activities can be used for Family Home Evening or just to have fun while learning about records.

These are great resources and ideas to create ones for your own family! Thank you. I think I want to get family members from different Single Adults as well as Youth in my ward/area and custom make the questions to those people so it feels more personable. This is great.
