St. Patrick’s Day Leprechaun Scavenger Hunt ideas for Kindergarten?? What do you do?

I just remember in K going around the school looking for clues that a Leprechaun left and then at the end finding a pot of gold with chocolate gold coins. I think the upper grades will have testing that day (BOO!) so I am looking for ideas of what you do for the day! Thanks

I want to make a treasure hunt for my neices and nephews… help!?

I’ve done treasure hunts and scavenger hunts before for them, but I’m looking for some new creative ideas. They are ages 11, 10, 8, and 7
(2 boys and 2 girls.) Does anyone have any creative ideas for making a treasure hunt, OR any websites devoted to showing people how to create a kids’ treasure hunt? THANK YOU!
Jacob, thanks for the suggestion, but that is a classic treasure hunt. That’s what I always do with them. Its become a tradition that I make a treasure hunt for them every time they come to visit, so I want some new ideas if possible! Thank you again!

Halloween Party Hunt Prize?

Hi, I’m hosting a halloween party along with 2 of my friends. I’m planning the Treasure hunt or Scavenger hunt or what ever you want to call it and I need an idea for a prize. Keep in mind that it can’t be over $10, I don’t want anything babyish since we are all 13 and not candy because we’re going trick-or-treating before the party. Maybe baked goods or something like that. We’re doing 2 scavenger hunts. For the first one I’m hiding apples and caramel and then the team who finishes last get to make caramel apples. So I’m asking if you have any ideas for an end prize or ideas for little things that are hidden throughout the hunt that lead up to the end.

Help me solve this riddle!!! please?

every year my city has a scavenger hunt basically and they give 1 clue everyday in the newspaper for 15 days. So far no1 has found the treasure chest (thats the item you need to get), and i have 12 clues. Here are all the clues, if i win i would receive a prize, so if anyone has any ideas of the location of the chest or can help translate this pirate talk i would GREATLY appreciate it. Here are the clues so far.

1. X almost marks the spot.
2. Dont know where me treasure keep? it is not near any briny deep.
3. If a freebooter ye are, a drivelswigger could get far.
4. The cloest cackle fruit is almost out of sight, u can win another lottery there if u get the numbers right.
5. Moonlight here is hard 2 see, intense gold light surrounds thee.
6. A high mast be near, but from the location, might not be so clear.
7. Currents above instead of below, makes us happy with its flow.
8. Ye could fly a jolly roger very near, although right now there is nothing here.
9. Go the wrong way and youll be forced way off course, watch out for the twins they send u away from me source.
10. Arrgh…need to walk the planks to get to me hoard, but look for four boards.
11. Five leagues from me base, are u the one to win my race?
12. Avast, avast, avast!

i know that no1 will be able to pinpoint the exact location, since its a local thing and u must know the city, but any clue translations or guesses where it may be such as near a baseball field or something would be very helpful.

thankssssssssssss
