Friday night Carlen asked about treasure hunting and started gathering up some of his toys to place in a cache. We spent some time picking out some good items, then went for a walk to find a good place to hide it. Alicia came with us and it became our first family hide. When we got home I put together the cache page and made it "
MiniMac's Toddler Toybox" with a little puzzle worksheet for kids to do to solve for the final coordinates.
I took Carlen out caching yesterday. I was quite impressed at how quickly he spotted good hide locations. He would zone right in on trees with hollows and would divide up the work, "I'll check these ones and you check those ones, Daddy." He was always quite excited, and he found a couple by himself without direction (well, I stood in the general area until he noticed them
I figured that he'll be out with me more and more as the weather gets nicer, so he has his own caching ID now. Fun fun fun.
