Treasure hunts

The kids spent the better part of the day putting together treasure hunts. Lex started his and Eve wanted to help, but he wouldn’t tell her what the treasure was at the end, so she decided to make her own treasure hunt instead. He was sweet and helped her with her spelling and writing. After quiet time and snack they were done and we did the hunts. We started with Eve’s.

clue 1

“There is an arrow pointing to the next clue.” The “pull” was sticking out of the cabinet so that was the only part of the clue that was visible.

clue 2 front

(front) “There is a beautiful treasure at the”

clue 2 back

“end of this treasure hunt.” The way Lex helped was by writing out the sentence she wanted to say on a scrap paper and then she transcribed onto her clues. I can see areas where his messy handwriting resulted in poor spelling on her clues. :)

Eve’s treasure! The tall guy is Lex saying “I love you” and the shorter one is Eve saying “I love you two.” :) Personally, I love them both!

Eve’s treasure hunt was a little fluid, with part of it involving us following her with an arrow in her hand. :)

Then we moved on to Lex’s treasure hunt. I love their writing so I took pictures of all the clues. They are just so sweet! His writing is more legible so I’m not going to transcribe them all.

He put two tabs hanging down, but only one contained the treasure!

Eve got it!

Lex’s treasure!

My treasures!

We put everything back in place again and Alan did the treasure hunts later while I made dinner.

Our Sunday morning also contained:

math towers

Math towers!

doll store

Number rods turned into a doll furniture store so the dolls can browse and shop for new furniture. Lex rolled away for the picture but he was actively engaged in the game for awhile too.
