I had to share the treasure hunt map I made for my grandkids for Christmas morning. I have clues to send them all over the house finding gifts, only to end up outside where a brand new 4 wheeler is waiting for them.

What a great treasure! You are so unique.
For years, I always had the kids' main gift as a "hunt" where it would start off figuring out a clue which will lead to another, then another, then would end with their big gift. It would be the last gift and they had to take turns while the other figured out their gift before doing their own. They absolutely loved it. The gift would always be something they really wanted, but I think they enjoyed the "hunt" more than anything else.
How unique it is that you have done this with stamping!! Love it ... TFS!

This is very cool, and your map is divine. They will love this. We play all kinds of evil games with the kids for Christmas. Glad to see we are not the only ones. We have a scavenger hunt for the presents under the tree. And then my DH gives them cash. This year they have to play Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader for the bucks. Don't ya just love how it makes Christmas last longer when they have to work for it. Have a great time, I know I am so looking forward to all the Reindeer Games.

You clever, clever lady! I have always done this for Easter and now with my grandkids. They get so tickled when they come over just thinking about the hunt. But, I never thought about doing it for Christmas and I have no idea why! I may work on putting something together because I agree that it just extends the fun for the kids. Thanks for sharing your wonderful idea!!!
