Adventure awaits this summer with The Week Junior Science+Nature's Scavenger Hunt Photo Contest! Every year, we challenge our readers to go outside, track down 10 hidden treasures and get creative with a camera.
This year’s theme is “Focus on Nature”. We’re encouraging people to ditch the devices, explore wild spaces and focus on the natural world.
