Step 3: Fill Eggs

Cut out clues, making sure to keep them in order. Fill Easter eggs with clues and number them 1-18.

Step 4: Hide Clues

Hide your clue starting with the second egg, so that they lead to the next spot on your clue map. Then hid your treasure at the end. (In the tub/shower!)

It's a good idea to send yourself on the hunt first to make sure you've have all your eggs in order.

Step 5: Gone Hunting

Give the first egg to your treasure hunter and tag along to watch the fun!

Enjoy!
