Dinosaur Treasure Hunt
![]() |
Your dinosaur treasure hunt will include:
Also some instructions and footprint markers. |
What do you do?
It's really simple...set out the 6 treasure marker scenes around the house or garden using the treasure map as a guide and hide the next clue behind each scene.
If you are using the hunt for the children to fill their own party bags (see party bag gifts for ideas), hide treasure in a bowl behind each of the scenes. If you are just having treasure at the END of the hunt then put it behind the T-Rex only.
Read the first clue aloud to the children and set them off to find the cave boy and girl treasure marker and the next clue. Carry on reading the clues until they get to the T-rex at the end!
Depending on how hard you hide the markers, the size of the venue and the ages of the children it can take 10-20 mins.
What age is it suitable for?
The ideal age for this treasure hunt is 3-8, but the clues and treats can be adapted to suit children of all ages and parents can read the clues out loud for younger children. Tiny tots can be engaged by pointing to the picture on each clue card, so they can enjoy looking out for the Triceratops and other treasure markers.
You can write you own clues too if you want to make things more difficult, we've left space on the reverse of the clue cards for you to do this, just cross out those provided with a black marker. You can give children additional clues by shouting ‘warmer/colder’, until they find the treasure.
Now enjoy your Dinosaur Treasure Hunt!!
