Host lines (opening)
Tom (in captain's hat): "Ahoy, crew! I'm Captain Redbeard, and this morning a seagull dropped this on our deck." (holds up a torn map) "Half a map! Legend says the other half is hidden right here, guarded by riddles only real pirates can solve. Are you real pirates?" (kids shout "Aye!") "I can't hear you over the waves!" (louder "AYE!") "Then earn your gold. Three trials, one treasure. Crews, to your ships!"
Games and contests
Cannonball relay (20 min)
Each crew carries water balloons on a big spoon to their "ship" (a hula hoop) 10 metres away. A dropped "cannonball" goes back to the start. The crew with the most balloons in 3 minutes wins a map piece. Rain option: use ping-pong balls indoors.
Knots & riddles (20 min)
Two tasks per crew: tie a simple knot from a picture card, and solve 3 riddles. Example: "I have a bed but never sleep, a mouth but never eat. What am I?" (A river.)
Treasure hunt (35 min)
Five clues in rhyme lead around the yard. Clue 1: "Where green things grow and the hose sleeps tight, look under the pot that's painted white." The last clue leads to a chest with gold coin bags for everyone — no crew loses.
Props list
- 16 bandanas, name tags, captain's hat
- Torn map in 4 pieces, 5 rhyme clue cards
- 4 hula hoops, 4 large spoons, 40 water balloons
- Small chest, 16 bags of chocolate coins
Backup ideas
- If a game ends early: "Captain says" (pirate version of Simon says)
- If kids get tired: quiet "message in a bottle" drawing at the table

About this service
You tell us the hiding spots you have, a house, a garden, an office or a park, and we write a riddle for each one and put them in an order that makes a good route. Clues get harder as the hunt goes on and match the players' age, from picture-word clues for little ones to ciphers for teens and adults. With several teams we plan separate routes, so they do not just follow each other.
What is included
- What you getA set of clues in route order, an answer key with the hiding spot for each clue, a help hint per clue and the final treasure moment, as text on the order page.
- A riddle per spotWritten for your real places
- Smart routeNo back-and-forth across the house
- Age-right difficultyPictures, rhymes or ciphers
- Help hintsIf a team gets stuck

Questions and answers
You have not seen my house. How do the clues fit?
Each riddle is written for a spot from your list, so the clues fit your real places. Add a word about each spot if it is unusual.
Can it be a photo or phone hunt?
Yes. Clues can ask teams to take a photo at a spot or arrive as messages you send when they report the last answer.
Can it work in a city or neighborhood?
Yes, along a public route you choose. You check that every stop is safe and open at the time of the hunt.
