Yo! Ho! Ho! It’s a pirate treasure hunt! If you are looking to set-up a treasure hunt for your Pirate Party, you can organize it in a couple of ways:
- For very small children (under the age of 5), simply hide gold coins in your party area and give them small mesh bags to find their loot! Easy and fun. This candy can also be used as the party favor too.
- For older kids, provide them with a treasure map…use brown paper, burnt at the edges…and draw a treasure map that the kids must follow to the treasure. At each point, have a clue available at the location for the kids to solve before they move on to their next location. OR provide clues that take them around an area that eventually leads to the treasure. Up to 10 clues would be ideal.
- When the kids reach the Treasure Chest, have it filled with candy, chocolate, eye patches, fake jewels, etc.
- For some clues, check out the following, these include locations both indoors and outdoors:
- Tree: An old matey could take me down, and make me into a boat to sail around.
- Flower Bed: If you pull a bunch from the bed, they will flourish and bloom and make our ship move ahead.
- Sand Box: Don’t get caught in the granular seed or soon enough you will be sinking no longer able to lead.
- Fort: Head to your perch, pull out your scope, you’ll have the best view if you lurch!
- Front Porch: Yer perch may be where it all begins, open the door and you may be let in!
- Garage: it’s dark and dank, full of stowage and vittles if we be frank.
- Mailbox: We ship out on X Date, and your marching order will come to the box by the gate.
- Bathtub: If you get out of hand on board, we’ll hose you down in here with a hoard.
- Kitchen Table: Around this place we’ll gather for vittles or drink or a game of cards in you rather.
- Fire Place: It’ll be cold on board as the waves take us over, you’ll so wish to warm yourselves with burning clover.
These are just a few of the clues you can use to lead your pirate party guests around to find their treasure! Good Luck Hunting!
