Divide by 4, then. You can design a scavenger or treasure hunt to suit most any holiday. Make a romantic hunt for your significant other on Valentine's Day, or write up some spooky clues for Halloween—there are lots of opportunities for festive inspiration. This will depend on the particular holiday you're celebrating, but here are a few clue types that can easily be modified to match any holiday. Don't let this happen to your clue.
Get some tips for holding a treasure hunt indoors, such as pet-proofing your hiding spots. When you picture a scavenger or treasure hunt, you might imagine a group of people running around outside, overturning rocks and searching under bushes. That kind of hunt is great, but indoor hunts have a lot of advantages, too.
For one, they're not dependent on the weather, and there's less chance that the clues will get dirty and become illegible. They're just as challenging to design, but they'll probably take you less time to set up. And you don't need to have a big yard—or even a big house—to hold one. For a bookshelf hunt , have the clues lead participants to different books on the shelf, and slip each clue between the pages of the books in question.
Your clues could relate to the books' titles, authors, plotlines, or even physical attributes like the size of the book or the color of the book jacket. For a cupboard hunt , each clue should point towards a different item in the cupboard, and you put the clues inside those items or tape them to the undersides. If you're using a food cupboard, just make sure the clues don't touch any food—you can slip a clue between the plastic bag and the cardboard of a cereal box, for example, instead of putting it in the bag with the cereal.
If you're centering your hunt on a single room, it's more likely that your clue-solvers might accidentally find the clues out of order. You can combat this by making sure that each clue is well-hidden—instead of just putting a clue under the blanket on the bed, you might tape it to the underside of the bed; it's less likely to be stumbled upon by accident that way. Also, make sure that the clues are unambiguous. This is especially important when the clues are hidden close together.
It would be fine to have three different clues placed in three different drawers in a dresser as long as the clues clearly point to the right drawers in the right order. If you have pets, especially cats or dogs, you'll want to place the clues out of their sight and reach. Put clues inside drawers or cupboards, in closed closets, inside boxes, etc. If you're doing a hunt for kids, make sure those areas are also child-safe.
Use tape to secure clues in place, if needed. There's nothing Mittens would enjoy more than fishing your clue out from beneath the coffee table and batting it around the room. The same goes for the final treasure! There you have it: numerous ideas for creating scavenger or treasure hunt clues.
Remember that creating these clues takes time, so give yourself at least three days to a week to prepare a simple hunt and even longer for a more complex one. It will all be worth it in the end. Great job! Great ideas. I have been creating treasure hunts for almost 15 years now. I came across these ideas and some of these I have used to create new two-step treasure hunt or scavenger hunt games for kids.
Fully customisable as per number and age of players and playing area. Great ideas!!! I made a hunt for my grandson's 8th birthday and he absolutely loved it. His cousin kept saying, "Grandma, you got to do this for my birthday.
FYI my grandson's first clue was attached in the lid of a decorated altoid tin the remaining clues 12 took him around the house inside and out and brought him back to the altoid tin where his gift cash was under the first clue.
My daughter's friend visiting from Australia was writing the rhyming clues down so she could do it with her grandkids back home. Who doesn't love the challenge of the hunt! Thanks so much for the ideas. I can see using many of them many times. Thank you so much for this page. I love the ideas. You have me excited to start planning for this hunt for Valentines Day. Thank you. I used to love scavenger hunts! My mother would put them on for me all the time, this Hub brought back some great memories.
After having 5 sons and a daughter in that order, trying to become a police officer and manage getting through the day successfully, my self-designated SuperMom status and crown are humbly handed over to you, it's rightful owner. Thanks so much!!!! It helps a LOT!!!!! I'm doing a treasure hunt for some friends, I'm sure they will have a blast with these ideas! Worldseeker, I have to write 4 scavenger hunts for a freelance writing job, and your hub has really helped me!
Thank you so much for writing it and compiling all this great info! I voted it up, useful, awesome, and interesting! Abigail, thanks for bringing that to my attention. I have updated my hub to show a new link upsidedowntext. Thanks and I hope you enjoy your hunt! Thanks for all these ideas, so wonderful and for the links too. Just one small hitch, I am trying to do the mirror image but can't find where on bored. Thank you sooo much!
This is a HUGE help in planning a hunt. We have two treasure hunts so far in a cottage country, and we made the kids digging the ground, getting on the water, and climb the tree. Probably you can search the same image on google image search box - "To the Beginning of Every End". It has a treasure hunt background, just like real thing. The first time was not long, but the second time we learn the lesson, and the trick is: not to confuse the adult, we do one burying one at a time, and we manage to get to 9 location.
Thank you for your wonderful ideas. I will use some of these ideas with my special needs child who needs engaging activities to do. You have helped so much. Thank you so much! I did this last year for my younger sister who was turning 10, but this year I was stumped! I did a couple trivia questions with mutiple choice but I ran out of pictures!
Thank you again! Party Games. Drinking Games. Lawn Games. Creative Writing. Color could be brighter, and graphics could be a little sharper, but overall, it is one of the better strictly HO games out there. Rated 5 out of 5 by bellecat1 from Hidden Expedition, Everest This is my favorite game of all time. I do love all things everest but this game is just so cool. Challenging and not all dark all the time. I play it over and over.
I just love the Hidden Expedition games. I own all of them and play a couple at a time. Check it out and be pleasantly surprised. Everest was a lot of fun, excellent HO game. Very informative of all the different locations, the REAL videos were interesting as were the accompanying narratives.
I loved the challenge of the very well hidden items and the colorful locations added to the fun, as did my colorful opponents who were trying to keep up with me. A couple of times they got too close for comfort. My one negative of my Everest trek is that rotating the puzzle pieces had to be done with the space bar and it slowed me down sometimes, simply because it was out of the norm and I lost precious game time just remembering to make that minor adjustment from mouse to bar.
I just purchased the newest Expedition and I'm eager to get started. Hopefully more of these great Expedition games will be finding their way to the Big Fish inventory! Rated 5 out of 5 by SrRat from Absolutely the best! I am definitately a HOG head. This game fits the bill. The scenes are beautiful, the music is sometimes spooky, sometimes lovely, depending on where in the world you are - love that aspect of this game.
I have many other HOG games but I find myself coming back to this one often. Rated 5 out of 5 by coys27 from fun hidden object game! Rated 5 out of 5 by mspaws from HO lover paradise!!!! Love the graphics, the HO's, the music. A plus game!!!!!! The Burning Platform theory comes from the North Sea oil rig explosion that killed One of the 63 survivors recounted how he stood on the edge of the platform that was so hot from the fire it was melting, and realized that probable death was a slightly better chance than certain death.
So he jumped feet into the freezing ocean. His rescue and decision at the height of crisis led organizational change consultant, Daryl Conner , to develop and propel the metaphor for corporate crises management.
Up on the Hillary Step, decisions were made that ultimately doomed people. But the point Connor makes is the risk trumps status quo when the later spells disaster, either financial or physical.
