The Village of Intercourse has a Children's Christmas Treasure Hunt every year that we
really enjoy.
We begin at the Best Western Hotel by decorating bags and receiving a map to find the hidden treasures around town.
Best Western also had Cookies 🍪.....
and a really fun tractor/wagon ride!
Solve the riddle and you can get a treasure!
About 15 stores/restaurants participated...
The candy store had our treasure, chocolate lollipops, decorating a tree.
Making gingerbread men at Kitchen Kettle Village.
Kens Gardens does a neat train display.
We also like to visit Kings Homestead. It is a really neat shop that also has a fish farm.
Mom gave each kid a quarter to feed the fish. Everyone (except Benjamin) went running to the fish food machine. Benjamin was a little confused...he went up to the water and threw his quarter right in! David was trying to convince Mommy he could jump in and get it because he saw it at the bottom.
Oh, how the little kiddos keep us laughing... lol

ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the Treasure Hunt with you through the pictures you posted. What fun for the children and how generous of the merchants in the town. Truly demonstrates Christmas Spirit! XO Grandmommy

Great post, what a fun way to spend the afternoon! Cute story about Benjamin and his quarter 😂 The part where David thought for sure he could retrieve the coin was just as funny!!
