Treasure Hunt: Weekend Tip

1:39 pm Games and Activities

This weekend, fill up a box with sand, and bury little treasures for your child to find - a toy, plastic animals and sea creatures, shells painted in glitter, coins, small balls, painted cones etc.

Have your child put her hands into the box, and pull out treasures one by one.  Ask for the names of each treasure she pulls out, or have a sheet of paper for her to write down the names of each as you spell out the letters.

Enjoy!

    Such a simple and beautifully tactile activity for a preschooler!

    I love this idea! This will be a great idea for our beach camping trip in a few weeks. Thanks!
