Looking for a fun and inexpensive game for kids’ birthday parties? Try making a treasure hunt! Kids love them and they’re easy! Here are some sample clues!

Treasure Hunt Clues for Kids Birthday Parties

How to Host a Treasure Hunt for a Kids Birthday Party

Often when we have a party for the kids, we make a treasure hunt for them. if you decide to have a treasure hunt, here is an example of some of the clues we have used in the past. Keep in mind you don’t have to be a brilliant poet to be successful. The kids are more excited about where they are going next than about the literary value of the poetry!

If you have never had a treasure hunt for your kids, make it so that the kids are a little bit challenged to find the clues but not too challenged. We usually give them a location of the next clue, but the clue is generally somewhat hidden at that location. We have also learned that it is not a good idea to spread out the clues over a large geographic area. We once had a treasure hunt where the kids had to go to a neighbor’s house a half a block away for some of the clues. Even though young children have a lot of energy, they quickly lose interest if it is too difficult to reach the goal.
