  • Pirate Treasure Hunt Map

    Task: The task was to create a treasure hunt map for a children's game. My client provided me with photographs of objects they wished to include on the map, such as playground equipment, clusters of trees, roads, and more. Additionally, maps of the Laguna Beach area in California, USA, were supplied.

    Treasure Hunt Maps are designed to pinpoint the locations of hidden treasures or prizes. They are utilized in games with children to craft an engaging search experience. Children follow the map's clues, enhance their navigation skills, solve riddles, and collaborate in groups to locate the hidden treasure or complete tasks indicated on the map.

    Typically, these maps are tailored to a specific location or venue where the game is conducted, be it a backyard, park, forest, city, or any other setting. The placement of treasures or prizes on the map typically corresponds to actual locations within that area, heightening the realism and excitement of the search experience for children.

    After thoroughly reviewing my client's information, I commenced the task and ultimately created a printable map layout. My client printed the map, and subsequently, his entire family enjoyed numerous entertaining hours playing treasure hunt games alongside their children.
