Treasure and Scavenger Hunts: How to Plan, Create, and Give Them!
Treasure and scavenger hunts aren't merely for children's parties; adult community organizations use them for fund-raisers and just for fun. Burgett has suggestions for kids and teens, but his focus is really on adult playtime. He's aware of the many drawbacks and potential hazards to scavenger hunts and provides solutions. He also gives advice on the celebrations that often accompany hunts and also suggests how to handle invitations, food, and, of course, the hunt itself. One problem: he cites suggestions from books that are 20 and even 40 years old--some on teen parties, for instance, date from 1965. Still, Burgett's own advice and party plans are up to date and include a handy checklist for party preparation.Denise Perry Donavin--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
