Compete for points! Treasure card hunt

Let me introduce a treasure card hunt game where you hide, seek, and compete for points.

Start by preparing treasure cards and drawing illustrations on them.

It’s even more fun if you pick a theme—like your favorite drawings, or specific fruits and vegetables—and create the cards.

About three cards per person is perfect.

Once you split into a seeking team and a hiding team, assign point values to the cards and hide them.

Add up the points of the cards you find; the team with the highest total score wins.

It also works great as a solo competition.

Give it a try!
