Looking for a fun indoor activity? Try a treasure hunt

Take a peek, come and find, something special... it'll blow your mind!

Sophie White

The weather is very cold, the house looks like shite.

Do a treasure hunt, and they’ll play nice without a fight… (don’t hold us to that)

Hide these clues around the house and then find the hidden surprise – some sweets, a colouring book or if you’re feeling crafty a trophy á la Ross and Monica’s Geller Cup from Friends.

The Clues:

If you’re a hungry little dude,

go in here and find some food

(Hide clue in the kitchen)

The second clue we must confess,

is hidden where mum keeps her dress

(Hide clue in the wardrobe)

You need to give these a brush,

to help munch your food into mush

(Hide clue in the toothbrush holder)

To find the next clue take a look

at things we use to help us cook

(Hide clue in the pots and pans)

This is where we like to lounge,

so go and look, have a scrounge

(Hide clue in the couch)

Need to chill? Or get a drink?

The clue is here, c’mon on now think!

(Hide clue in the fridge)

Not too many to go now, keep on the ball

And look in the hall

(Hide clue in the hall)

The final clue. The final prize.

Look up to see your surprise

(Hide this high up in the hall, on the coat rack perhaps)
