Find the Leprechaun's Pot of Gold - Treasure Hunt Game
 
Find the Leprechaun's Pot of Gold
Cut circles out of construction paper and decorate to look like coins, then select 2 or 3 coins to be gold or silver coins. If you go will silver just wrap these in aluminum foil and they will look like shine coins. You can also use chocolate coins but make sure you have two different colors.
Now you will need a bunch of coins for hiding maybe 3 – 5 per person. Now select an area or room to hide the coins for your game. Depending on age it can be easy or difficult, however you want to make your gold coins the hardest to find.
Now you can let your guests know that a Leprechaun Willy was visiting this morning and shared a tail of woe. He was out the other day with his Pot of Gold when he was distracted by a rainbow. Well Leprechaun Willy wanted to see the rainbow so he put his Pot of Gold down to get a better look. While Willy was away some squirrels came upon his Pot of Gold and thought the coins in his pot were nuts and they took the coins and hide them.
When Willy returned he was shocked to see someone took all his gold and silver coins. Willy has been searching for his coins all day, but has yet to find them.
Now let the kids if they would like to help Willy find his coins and that you remember seeing Willy in “the room or area where you hide the coins” and that Willy mentioned he lost a lot of coins and that a few were gold and if anyone finds the gold coins Willy is willing to give them a prize. (or you can give prizes based on the most coins too)
This is a fun hide and seek game and you can play more than once and if you use chocolate coins the kids get to eat them.
