Kids of all ages love to make a treasure map. For kids, this is a great opportunity to draw and dream up. For those who are older, this is an opportunity to participate in role-playing games, while being an author, director and performer. According to psychologists, role play has a very positive effect on the social and psychological development of children. In addition, treasure mapping is one of the options for active leisure for children. Of course, it would be nice to include help from adults.
It is necessary
An old box with an insignificant change or a chest with old scrap - that is, something that is not of particular value, but will be interesting when found.
