Halloween Birthday Scavenger Hunt

An October birthday usually shares the week with Halloween. The costumes may already be sorted. What is missing is a short path of clue cards the kids can follow through the house you already have. The closest fit is the mystery detective hunt: Milo, a fox in a checkered cap, leads ten cards from room to room. If your child would rather sail to a chest or follow a jungle trail, those hunts print the same night. Preview the cards free before you pay.

Sample clue flavor

Front door

The night starts at the tall front door. Look down low, beside the mat.

Coat hook

A cape or coat hangs in this spot. The next card hides behind the cloth.

Couch

Soft cushions make a hiding den. Check underneath, then read again.

Kitchen counter

A flashlight waits beside the fruit. The following card is right there too.

Hiding spots for Halloween night

• Front door, low beside the mat
• Coat hook, behind a jacket or a cape
• Under a couch cushion
• Bottom shelf of the bookshelf
• Kitchen counter, next to a flashlight
• Inside one shoe by the closet
• On top of the laundry pile
• Porch steps only if the light is already on

Preview the pirate hunt. Percy the parrot, bandana and eye patch. A night voyage to a chest, and a bandana is enough of a costume.

Preview the jungle hunt. Coco the monkey in an explorer hat. A trail through the house. Stuffed animals can stand in, and a backyard is optional.
