My daughter gave me a treasure hunt for Father's Day. She created her own substitution cipher and wrote clues using invisible ink that I needed a black light to see. It guided me to a locked bin that had two combination locks on it.

The rest of the clues pointed me all around the house and each clue had a country name on it. This one I found in the attic next to the Halloween decorations.

She even included a 404 ERROR

The country names corresponded to invisible, encoded digits on a big map in my office.

Plenty of false numbers to keep me from guessing the combinations too soon.
She did a lot of work to encode each clue, and it was so fun to do. I am so super proud of her and love her to death!!
The treasure chest contained plastic gems, plastic gold coins, chocolate gold coins, sweatpants, a Jack Skelington lanyard and what treasure chest wouldn't be complete without rum?
She did good!!

This sounds like so much fun. All you need now is a smoke pipe and some detective clothes, you can go all Sherlock on this!

This is amazing! How old is your daughter? You have all right to be proud as hell.

You must also be a cool dad for her to know that you would enjoy that. Good job

Has your daughter tried geocaching? This would be an amazing puzzle cache, and she might enjoy solving ones created by others.

That's awesome. Treasure hunts are already great, but one your daughter made for you? That's special.

I've done one every year for her birthday, and I have to admit, she really out did me with this one!
