The Sock Hunt is a perfect activity to carry out on World Down Syndrome Day and “Rock Your Socks” Day on March 21st (also known as Crazy Sock Day in English). The materials are also available for download in Swedish. 
In this exciting activity, the Sock Monster has been at it and hidden 14 different socks with various designs. Now it’s up to the children to search for these hidden socks using their checklist and mark each sock they find.
By looking for socks, the children not only have an entertaining task, but they also get the opportunity to be active and move outdoors in the fresh air. It’s a fantastic combination of play and exercise!
The materials included in the “Sock Hunt” are:
1. Introduction and accompanying description: An introduction to the activity and a description of how to play “Sock Hunt.”
2. 14 different colorful socks in A4 format: The socks come in various patterns and colors and are used to be hidden and found during the sock hunt.
3. The tale of the “Sock Monster”: A story about the mischievous sock monster that hides the socks. The story should be read before the “sock hunt” to engage the children and give them an understanding of the purpose of the activity.
4. An epilogue with concluding text.

Sabine Holmgren Fathi –
Tack för ett underbart material som vi kunde använda oss av på förskolan där jag arbetar.
Vi började med att läsa upp sagan om strump monstet för barnen och sen delade vi in barnen två och två och sedan började själva strumpjakten.
Var ett väldigt uppskattad uppgift ifrån både barn och vuxna.
Några av kommentarerna ifrån barnen när vi sen frågade vad de tyckte om uppgiften:
”Suuper kul, det här vill jag göra igen”
”Jag älskar strump monstret, nu kan jag berätta till mamma varför mina strumpor går sönder emellanåt.”
”Det här var jätte kul”
Rekommenderar verkligen detta material
