Scavenger Hunt Ideas - 0 views

  • A Picture Hunt Instead of looking for objects, you can have teams take pictures. Give one member of each group a camera (if you are hosting a party for kids, have one adult in each group carry a camera). Then send them out to find certain landmarks in the neighborhood. Have them take pictures of each item on the list.
  • Hunting for Information Rather than having teams look for objects, you can ask them to collect information. Teams can find dates on certain buildings, count the number of houses on a certain block, gather facts from historic landmarks, etc. To do this, map out a route that the teams will take. This is an inexpensive way for teams to collect information, learn and have fun at the same time.
  • Hunting for Sound Rather than looking for objects, have teams carry a tape recorder. Give them a list of different sounds to listen to. When they find the sound, they record it. Certain sounds might include the ringing of a bell, the ticking of a clock, a radio station jingle, etc. Set a certain time frame and see how many sounds teams can find in the allotted time.

Do You Decarboxylate Your Weed Before You Cook With It? It Is Highly Recommended | Food... - 0 views

  • Gray explains the science thusly: "Raw cannabis contains a lot of THCA, which is nonreactive. When you smoke cannabis, it heats up to a certain temperature and loses a CO2 molecule and becomes THC, which has the psychoactive benefits that many users are looking for." Simply simmering cannabis in butter, or oil, isn't always enough to fully convert all of the THCA into THC, he continues. And so, the result is less than optimal: "You're going to make a very dull cannabutter," he says. The best method, Gray says, involves some added prep work. "So, instead of just, say, sticking your cannabis in butter or sticking it in oil, you should first grind it onto a baking sheet, stick it in your oven at 310-degrees Fahrenheit for about 10 to 18 minutes. That allows it to become psychoactive and it's ready to cook with."
