Treasure Hunt

Getting Started:

• Your first two decisions are: ‘Indoor or outdoor’? and ‘How many clues’?
• Without the kids watching work out where you’re going to put the clues and decide what order you want them to be found. Now write clues.
• The first clue is one you read aloud or give them to read, it leads them to the first treasure and the second clue. Then one leads to the next.

A Suggestion:

Clues can be simple, like: “Under the flowerpot in the porch” or more complicated like “There’s something growing in the sunny place”. If you’re really adventurous you can do them in rhyme!

Some people put little bits of treasure along the way, with each clue. Other people just places clues leading to bigger treasure. And remember, the treasure doesn’t to be candy, toys or money. It’s a game. Playing the game is the fun part!
