Treasure hunt as a summer reading project

Vermont, USA - at a small public library in Vernon. The party is to support our Summer Reading program. The theme is - Realms of Reading - and while most of our program will use a medieval theme, I?ve chosen the pirate theme pack as appropriate. All ages will take part - the summer reading is for kids from birth through high school. The hunt will include parents. We want to use a medieval theme

The treasure hunt planner book seems very thorough, which is a huge help to us. We?re a small library with a small staff and don?t have the time to put all the work into that you have done for us! Thanks!!!

I am now Mr. Treasure Hunt

Hey Nikki,

I organized the treasure hunt last weekend and it was a great success.

My planning was based out of your Treasure Hunt download and made some little changes here and there to suit our theme. I had 24 people from ages 8-60 and this was played at a large park area.

Great fun...

I owe the success of the game to you. It was very well planned out and in good detail. I am planning to organize another treasure in the near future and I am excited.

I am now addressed as Mr. Treasure Hunt...:) Thanks,

Pirates of the Caribbean at company picnic treasure hunt

Thanks for inquiring. Our company picnic will have a 'Pirates of the Caribbean' theme. A treasure hunt seemed a natural choice. We will have about 100 people, children and adults. One decision is whether to have two different hunts or to put children and adults together on a team. We also have many choices for locations. There is a nature trail through the woods, a ball field, a pond, front yard, and inside the buildings. My guess is we shouldn't spread out too much.

I'll contact you with other questions as I get further along in the planning. Your follow-up is very unexpected and welcome.

Instant treasure hunt one of most successful activities ever done

Nikki -- I adapted the instant treasure hunt for a church building and grounds setting. I had a family night with a dinner, and the after dinner entertainment was the treasure hunt. The parents and kids loved it! It was a BIG hit! After the treasure hunt, I gave my lesson which is that the Bible is full of 'clues' that lead us to the greatest treasure of all -- Jesus. Wish I had some pictures to send, but forgot to bring my camera. I was not sure this would go over well, but the treasure hunt was one of the most successful activities I have ever done with the kids.

Treasure hunt website shared with other parents

Hi Nikki, thank you very much for all the follow-up emails and also for making that customization website available. It's been REALLY EASY to plan this treasure hunt with all your materials and the website.

My son's 7th birthday party was this past Saturday and ran the pirate-themed treasure hunt. The kids ranged in age from 3-8. It was great fun! The kids really enjoyed themselves and the parents seemed to enjoy watching the activities, too.

I followed your basic design, signs, and most of the games. We did the whole treasure hunt on our backyard lawn in a space of about 15 ft x 25 ft.

I really enjoyed planning this and running it, too. Your instructions were great and really easy to follow. I'm looking forward to planning another treasure hunt soon. As I mentioned earlier, all the kids had a great time and the parents really enjoyed watching the treasure hunt. I've already shared your Web site address with several parents. Thanks again,
