Treasure Hunt

Send your guests on a thrilling hunt for gold (or candy)!

Cut some pieces of yarn of different colors, one for each guest. Loop a key onto the yarn and tie one end of the string to the house. 

Trail the other end through the yard and around a treasure chest, hidden somewhere. 

Be sure to weave the trails so that they cross one another in elaborate paths.

Note the criss-crossing pattern. (Bonus doggy!)

When it gets dark, give each guest a lantern and a piece of yarn. 

Glow-stick bracelets and dollar store lanterns help light the way in the dark 

 Each person threads their key through the tangle of yarn to their treasure chest. 

Golden candy as a reward!
