Etsy handles the payment and the instant download. Etsy may show the price in your currency and add tax for your country; it shows the final total before you pay.

The children read the rhyme, run to that place and find the next card. The last card leads to the treasure you hid.

Details

Inside

  • 30 rhyming clue cards, 3 on a page, each leading to one common place at home
  • A Treasure card to put with the treasure
  • 5 blank cards to write your own clues
  • A grown-up sheet with the answer to every card and a trail planner
  • A start page with setup steps and safety tips

The 30 places: fridge, bathtub, under a pillow, in a shoe, laundry basket, bookshelf, clock, couch cushions, mirror, toothbrushes, toy box, coat pocket, blanket, houseplant, under a chair, window sill, door mat, towel, lamp, sock drawer, backpack, cereal box, cookie jar, bottom stair, umbrella, fruit bowl, piggy bank, crayon box, family photo and hairbrush.

How it works

Pick 6 to 30 cards that fit your home and put them in any order. The answer to each card is the place where you hide the next one. Hide the treasure at the answer to your last card. Give the first card to the children and the hunt begins.

Who it is for

Children aged 4 to 10 at a Halloween party, a sleepover or on a rainy afternoon. Children who cannot read yet need a grown-up to read the rhymes aloud. Friendly Halloween: pumpkins, candy, cats, owls and bats, nothing scary. A grown-up hides the cards; for 10 cards this takes about 10 minutes (our estimate).

Printing

Print at 100% (actual size) on plain paper or card stock and cut on the dashed lines. You may print as many copies as your own family, party or classroom needs. Please do not share or resell the files.
