Kinectimals

As you progress through the game you will eventually unlock the Plunderscope automatically during freeplay. You will then be prompted to use it so say yes. All you have to do is hold it out and move the lens slowly along the ground and try to find a spot that is sparkling. Don't forget that you can move left or right to rotate the screen a bit if needed. Once you find a spot, hold the lens still on that location and your cub will go investigate. You will automatically put the lens at this point and need to do a digging motion to walk over and help your cub get it out.
