The Pocket Scavenger

A great idea!
This book is so much fun! It is a great way to get out and explore nature. In these times,where people are cooped up,it is a safe way to bring family together and break from boredom...plus you can send one to.a friend of family to compete with on line! Make your own rules,like instead of gathering items,take a pic of you with the item. A lso,you can make an urban version,take a pic with a public mailbox,a cop car, a flagpole, a lifeguard station,a church,etc. The possibilities are endless. Get out and walk,or take a drive.I have used this book for years,I do a scavenger hunt every Thanksgiving,because i m a vegetarian and don't celebrate..So this gives us something to look forward to.

Acceptable form of hoarding
This book is perfect for your inner goblin. Like collecting little scraps of things because you see the beauty and potential each piece holds? This is the book for you! I keep an envelope in the back to put small things in until I have time to sit down and actually create things with them based on the prompts. It’s helpful to snap a photo of the scavenger hunt list in the back to check if your interesting finds meet any of the criteria for a collection page. Other than that, I suggest you share this experience with a fellow goblin to make it more fun as you share your finds and alterations.

The Pocket Scavenger is a big hit
Bought this book for my 8 year old daughter. She has not put it down since she got it. It is a thick, sturdy, waterproof book that allows you find and collect over 100 items. My daughter has been gluing the items to the inside pages. There is a space on each page to write where you found the item, and you can include a story about the item and how you found it. When you turn the book upside down, you will see a new activity on the bottom of each page. It usually involves drawing a picture using the item you found. For example one page asks you to add legs to the used envelope you found. Another tells you to use your fingers and smudge something over a used post it note. This book is written by the same author as Wreck this Journal. The scavenger book is not as daring and reckless, but it has some resemblances and is a great addition for kids of ALL ages.

I love it!
This book is great, i got it cause i was bored but wanted something creative to do. I’ve been scavenging as much as possible and some of the things are quite hard to find. The book came in perfect condition and theres also cute things to do with your found items to give it more creativity.

Not just for kids!
Full grown woman here! I love this book! I've been using it to make collages incorporating found objects. I'm getting a lot out of this as an adult by using it as a prompt/exercise book. I'm also having fun with the scavenging process!I sliced off the bottom portion of the book using a straight edge and an Xacto, so the prompts would be easier to flip through. I noticed when first gathering items, that they acted like bookmarks, giving me the same prompts over and over as I "randomly" flipped to a page. This also means I'll have a little flipbook of prompts, even when I'm done (it also means I need to renumber the pages so I can use the table of contents to find where each item goes! Lol!)

WORTH EVERY PENNY
This book is amazing :O it will keep you occupied and is worth it totally. I love how you find the thing and then flip to a random page and turn it into a new creation. Found my summer activity.

Fun for adults too
Myself and husband bought this book to take on a camping trip. It was really fun scavenging for the items. It's going to take a while to complete which is great as I'd be sad if it was quick to complete

Meraviglioso
molto bello, mi aspettavo fosse più scadente e meno divertente di Wreck this journal e invece lo trovo anche migliore. Consigliatissimo.

Kreativität, Achtsamkeit, Spaß!
Sehr lustig und kreativ. Man wird aufgefordert einfache Sachen zu sammeln und zu findet, um im Verlauf findet man immer mehr Schätze , ob auf der strae oder wo anders. Danach beschäftigt man sich dann genau mit den gefundenen dingen. Also in gewisser Weise auch eine Achtsamkeitsübung.Man lernt in andere Richtungen zu denken und traut sich auch mal "Fehler" zu machen.Sehr schön :)
