Suggestions for Making Your Own Treasure Hunt Questions
Make your treasure hunt clues fun by making rhymes.
Don't forget that large household objects like furniture can be included; treasure hunts aren't just for small objects like keys.
Make sure that the questions are age appropriate.
Don't make clues for small children about hard-to-reach items.
Never children out of your sight and make sure an adult is on hand to assist young children who need help with reading.
