When we started Lello and Monkey we wanted to help all mums and dads to host wonderful parties at home on a budget. We didn't realise just how big things would get!!
We are delighted to have been asked by the RHS Harlow Carr Gardens in Harrogate to create a HUGE Pirate Treasure Hunt for their Pirate Day on 29th August 2009.
Our Pirate Treasure Hunt game has been printed at 4 times the size and the markers will be hidden around the wonderful gardens for children to find as they go around collecting stamps before finding the treasure at the end of the hunt. It's going to be a fantastic day, rain or shine, so we hope some of you will come and have fun.
Oh yeah and people are using our treasure hunts at all sorts of events including weddings to keep the kids entertained while the photos are being taken - what a great idea!!
