Treasure in the House! (Complete with treasure map!)
Can your kids find the treasure?
ADDED March 05, 2010
This one is so easy . . . and kids really love it.
Take a toy -- any toy -- and hide it somewhere in your house. Then, draw a simple map of your home showing the hidden object's location.
(I call the hidden toy a "treasure," of course. It makes the whole thing a bit more exciting.)
Give your kids the map and see if they can find the concealed toy.
That's it. So simple!
Of course, after finding the treasure, my kids wanted to hide the toy and make me a map!
My kids love solving puzzles and finding things that are hidden. While they were occupied by roving around the house with my map, I found some time to cook them a meal.
And that time is something to treasure!

I think I will use this as an activity at my son's birthday party. Thanks!
