A longer way to the present
- The present is the treasure. You pick where it waits at the end of the route.
- Works for one child on the birthday morning or for the whole party later.
- Ten letter coins collect into a secret message that points to the final spot.
- The cover wishes your child a happy birthday by name.
Sample clues on the way to the gift
- Breakfast table: Percy woke up early and squawked "hooray", look under your plate on your big day!
- Stairs: Percy counted steps, one, two, three, the stairs hold a clue for you to see!
- Coat rack: Percy hid behind a scarf and a hat, the coat rack is where the next clue is at!
Hide the gift, print the trail
- Create the hunt. Name, age and theme. Pirate Adventure is preselected, because a present is a treasure chest.
- Plan the route. Preview two spots for free, then set the ten stops. Decide where the present will wait.
- Set it up the night before. Print, cut and hide the cards after bedtime. Put card one next to the breakfast plate.
Common questions
Where does the present go?
At the final treasure spot. Put it down before you hide the last card, and choose a place they will not walk past by accident.
Can I use it for several small gifts?
Yes. Leave a small gift at a few of the stops and the main present at the end.
Does it work for just one child?
Yes. One child can play alone with a parent reading along, and it takes about 20 minutes.
What do I see before I pay?
The theme character and two of your own hiding spots as illustrated clue cards, free and without a card. The full printable hunt is $29.99 (was $34.99).
