Consistently rated the best local scavenger hunt since 2016!

Puzzling Adventures are a cross between a scavenger hunt, an adventure race, and an informative self-guided walking tour. Each adventure consists of a series of locations that you are guided to where you are required to answer a question or solve a puzzle to receive your next instruction. Compete as a group, individually or create multiple teams and race each other. Almost all of our adventures are designed to be wheelchair and stroller friendly and all are carefully crafted to be entertaining and informative with something to appeal to all ages. Complete the adventure as quickly as possible to win first place or take your time and enjoy the journey. Price is per team, not per person. Groups can be any size, but small groups are recommended for the best experience.

This course teaches parents the power of improvisation and the benefits of using flexibility during stressful situations. Taught through the structure of a standard improv curriculum, this parenting workshop is aimed to build parents’ abilities to think on their feet in the midst of chaos, creating positive outcomes and memories for their children.

This workshop is for the adults only, and is open to parents, almost-parents, and anyone who is involved with children in a family or work environment!

Facilitator Bio:

Bridie Schellenberg (she/her) is a parody songwriter and improvisor for the masses and, perhaps more importantly, for her three children. She is a stand up comedian, a sketch comedy writer, emcee, karaoke aficionado, and cheese lover who loves short walks on the beach and speaking in obscure accents. Bridie Schellenberg is a graduate of The Second City Chicago Conservatory Program. She continues to perform with several ensemble groups, including Baltimore’s own Senior Mints Comedy. In a former life, Bridie was a competitive dance choreographer and former dancer. Though performing comedy is where her heart lies, her biggest accomplishments will always be giving birth and eating a block of cheese to completion.
