Designing the hunt
Start with an easy warm-up list, then a longer team trail ending at a shared prize chest. Keep clues visual for early readers and written for older children.
Team vs solo hunts
Mixed-age parties work best in small teams with one older reader per group. Solo hunts suit confident older guests in a familiar garden.
FAQs
Common questions
What if some children cannot read yet?
Use picture lists or pair non-readers with an older teammate for written clues.
Safety note
Adult supervision is recommended. Adapt all party games based on age, space, allergies, and the number of children attending.
