Treasure Hunt Prizes
Filed Under pirate treasure hunt
Depending on the age of your treasure hunt participants there so many different types of prize or reward you can give during your treasure/scavenger hunts.
Obviously if you are following a theme such as a pirate treasure hunt you want to stick to prizes in the theme. So maybe chocolate gold coins along the way, with a big prize in a cardboard box made to look like a treasure chest.
If you are running a scavenger type hunt then you can give out small prizes (to share) along the way. Give out bags for collecting the prizes (borrow some pick and mix bags from your local store).
To protect the prizes you may want to hide then inside old toilet roll centres. Wrapping in tissue paper can be useful.
Apart from the obvious sweets, which can be wrapped in kitchen plastic bags, visit the local craft shop which often have interesting small items that make great prizes.
Another strategy is to have one big prize with clues to be found that map out a path to the goal. Include on the clues hints to the big prize. Get them guessing and build up the excitement.
