Secret agent treasure hunt for 10 year old

Hi Nikki,

Yes we are planning a secret agent party for our ten year old boy, Matthew.

We plan to set up the stations as 'training grounds' with tasks of mental, physical, disguise, agility, teamwork and code breakers. We will be using our yard and house as the playing area. We have a dark little room downstairs where we are planning to set up a 'laser grid' for them to master and then get to one of the activities (which will be set up under a single light :).

We will have about 10 boys all together who are pretty bright and agile so we are trying to come up with some good puzzles, etc... We are having trouble thinking of a teamwork challenge but otherwise, we have supplies for the spy disguises (mustache, dark glasses, spy hats, fake ids, etc..) and we will use the walking on a line activity in conjunction with our physical training (ie, obstacle course, which includes low crawl, jumping rope, push ups, etc...). We are excited about all of it--my husband is helping me think up some ideas too.

I was thinking of wrapping chocolate bars in gold paper to look like gold bricks to put in the 'safe'. All of your ideas were a great jumping-off point to go with our theme. Thanks so much for the boost'
