Candy hunt day: set everything up.
- Hint at the theme of the hunt throughout the day by alluding to certain elements of the story you’ve created.
- Hide the candy carefully, even if it means asking another member of the family to create a diversion. It's best to wait a few hours before the hunt begins to avoid having any of the hiding places discovered beforehand—especially if part of the hunt is outside, where four-legged intruders may also be looking for sweet treats...
Just before starting the hunt, adjust the lighting, create the right audio environment and have all your extra accessories on hand. Then let the hunt begin!
