Book Review; Treasure Hunt

Part of our family Easter traditions (which by the way we have a lot of Easter Traditions....lol) is to have a Treasure Hunt for the girl's Easter baskets. Each year we start them off with a clue that send them scurrying off and trying to figure out where the next clue is. Eventually after about three different locations have been deciphered, they get the final clue to the location of the coveted baskets.

Regan, Rebecca, and my niece Kyla look forward to this tradition every year. Last year the basket ended up hidden in the outdoor playscape, but we have hidden them in washer/dryers, bathtubs, and obscure closets before too. This year I am excited in finding some help with my treasure hunt clues in my new book Treasure Hunt A book of Clues for Parties by Nancy Kruse.

This little gem of a book is divided into clever poems using every room in the house, and even the outdoors. Looking to hide something in your kitchen? Then just go straight to the Kitchen section where several fun poems you can use are ready for you. They even had a poem where you can place your next clue in an ice cube to be very tricky. Or if you are looking for a more grown up version, there was a poem involving chugging your favorite brew to get the next clue.

I can see me using this book for many years to come, and as the girls get older, I can make the clues tougher. I can highly recommend Treasure Hunt A book of Clues for Parties for all your treasure game needs. This would be a great birthday party activity, a fun Christmas gift hiding game, or if you want to tempt your sweetheart with a Valentine Treasure Hunt.

Do you have any Treasure Hunting Ideas you can share?
