    I found you searching for Indiana Jones Bday & think you've got a great lens here!

    Great lens- nicely illustrated, too! I think kid's love hunting for treasure and it keeps them entertained for a long time.

    I have a lens on ideas for children's parties, too.

    I was always a big fan of buried treasure growing up. We use to draw pirate maps and burn the edges to make them look rustic and then head off in search of adventure. Thanks for the nostalgia.

    Wonderful! Your lens remember me in my time, when I had my birthday parties... Searching for treasures was always the best adventure!

    Great lens, I have hosted pirate parties myself and treasure hunts are always the favourite game at any gathering! This lens is very inspirational. Hope you don't mind if I link mine to it and please check me out - I'd love some tips and feedback!

    Bee, my oldest is almost 13 and I know for a fact that she would still be entertained by digging for treasure. I think with some creativity on the treasure you bury it might even get an adult's attention for some time. It's kind of calming, sifting through the sand and when you find something unusual it's a great surprise!

    Wonderful idea! What's the max age you think this would work with?

    Great lens - really nice. I love the photos - very "non-generic"! My daughter wanted a Pirate party and my ex-wife made treasure maps by designing them on the computer and printing them, then when dry they were soaked in tea to stain the paper, and finally the edges were burnt to complete the aged look. Very effective.
  • triathlontraining Jun 2, 2008 @ 10:25 am | delete
    I've bought cheap "treasure chests" and used the old tea trick to make treasure maps (something I learnt from my mom when I was a kid). Great fun!
  • serendipityrose May 31, 2008 @ 8:52 pm | delete
    Great ideas! And we are never too old to have fun digging for treasure! This will be a great summer time activity!

    Another great lens!

    A Buried Treasure Party sounds like a great idea. How about adding some Marti Gras Beads? I may use some of these ideas for my daughter's next birthday.

    Fantastic lens! Some great ideas here, but you forgot a fossil dig. Let me know at moleenaturestore.com if you'd like to include a fossil ammonite, seashell, shark teeth mix.

    When I was in school there was one girl--Tina--whose older sister would always plan scavenger hunts for Tina's birthday parties. Those were the best birthday parties I ever went to! The buried treasure parties you talk about on this lens sound great. Great lens!
