My girls love treasure hunts. LOVE them. It doesn't matter if the 'treasure' is something cool and sparkly or a pair of rolled up socks, they love hunting down hidden things. And if there is a map to follow? Even better.
WE USED:
* paper
* ruler
* pencils/pens/markers
* laminator
(you could also use clear contact or a clear document slip)
* whiteboard marker
* 'treasure'

Note; I didn't add furniture to the floor plan because I think that would have been too easy for Bubble, but they could easily be drawn in before laminating or with a whiteboard marker afterwards.
I hid each one in a different place, then made a cross on our map to show which room they were in and the rough location.
We also played in reverse, with the girls hiding the treasures and marking the crosses and Mum having to hunt them out (they found some pretty tricky hiding spots I can tell you! :-D).
love this, another fab idea!
ReplyDeleteAgreed! Fab idea!
ReplyDeleteI keep wondering if this is something that Henry (3yo) could do - follow a map to a treasure - it seems like it would be too abstract for him. I'll have to give it a go!
My kids love following maps especially the local zoo - this will be great for my younger one too
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing
I love it! I had wanted to do something like this for our letter X week, but just couldn't put enough energy into it to do it - for some reason it just seemed difficult that week! I'm going to give it a try this week!
