An original Happy Birthday greeting - an exciting adventure with finding a hidden gift using notes

Preparation

So, your task is to ensure that the player finds the gift in the right place after solving a series of riddles or completing mini-tasks. To do this you need:

Decide on a secluded place where you will hide the gift.
Make a chain of objects in your house that will lead to a hidden gift (the final point in it is the place where the gift will be). Hints and tasks can be hidden in a variety of places - from washing machine and ovens to the mailbox in the entrance. The chain needs to be carefully thought out so that the items do not intersect along the way and do not lead to a gift ahead of time.
Come up with and beautifully design messages-riddles-instructions.
Put all the messages in their places. To avoid confusion, you can number them and create a layout diagram for yourself.

The optimal number of stages is from 6 to 10: large quantity can make the quest tedious and anything less too fleeting. But this, of course, is a general recommendation - perhaps you will get a wonderful quest consisting of 5 stages (if the tasks are complex) or, conversely, 15 stages.

The quest can be made even more enjoyable and exciting if there are several gifts along the way (let the tasks be accompanied, for example, by chocolates or small souvenirs).

Puzzles

Where can I get riddles? The easiest option is to find riddles on the Internet, but you can also compose them yourself, since they do not at all have to correspond to poetic canons. And if they contain humor or something individual, personal (for example, related to some funny incident), then it will certainly be very pleasant for the birthday boy! To make your task easier, we offer a selection of riddles to help you create an indoor quest:

Options for possible clues and places where they can be hidden, as well as interesting ideas on how to play with some objects

balloon with a message inside
soft toy with a note in its paws
instead of a riddle - a set of letters from which you need to make a word
drawing with a hint inside the candy
a plate of cake with an “Eat Me!” sign attached, with a note underneath the treat
text file or picture (photo) with a hint on a flash drive
SMS message or email indicating what to do next
a hint in the camera - a pre-taken photograph of the next item in your chain; the player needs to take the camera and view the photos
a hint in the newspaper - the required word is highlighted with a marker (circled with a pen) (or we highlight the letters in different articles from which the player needs to make a word)
At one stage, the player finds objects or pictures that play an important role in some work (fairy tale) - the player must guess what kind of work it is and find a book with it. The book contains the following hint.
In a riddle, the key word may not be the word “picture” itself, but what is depicted on it. For example, in the picture there is a waterfall. Then, having guessed the riddle, the birthday boy will think about what the word “waterfall” means: a faucet in the bathroom, a shower, or something else. Then he guesses about the picture.
Make up a crossword puzzle (preferably on some interesting and suitable topic), in which the highlighted letters are the key words of the place where the gift is hidden.
The player finds the message and sees the following: the sheet depicts cellular telephone, from it there is an arrow to your pasted photo, from the photo of the shooter with the inscription “Code Word”, then again an arrow and some phrase (preferably it is very funny). This hint asks you to call you on the phone and tell you your password - in response, you also say a phrase (for example, a rhyme or a proverb), in which the next hint is encrypted.
Take a photo of the room where you are going to hide the gift, then print the photo in A4 format. Next, put it in a transparent file and put a cross on this file in the place where the surprise will lie. Then cut the photo into several parts. These will be “puzzles” that the birthday boy needs to assemble. At the final point of the chain, place a blank A4 sheet, a glue stick and a transparent file with a cross - the birthday boy will need to glue the “puzzles” onto a sheet of paper, put it in the file and see where the “treasure” lies.

As you can see, there are a lot of options. When preparing a quest, you can use these examples or give free rein to your imagination and come up with something original. The main thing is to put love into the preparation, and the return will definitely please you!

Beginning of the game

A message with a description of the game and the first riddle can be:

Give to the birthday boy personally
Send as SMS message
Place it in a visible place or attach it to the wall
Deliver it through friends or neighbors, using a courier service - it all depends on your imagination and your capabilities

Approximate text of the message:

"Happy birthday! A gift has been prepared for you, but it is safely hidden. Complete all the tasks, and then you will find him. Good luck! »

And then you watch as the player enthusiastically solves your messages and finds a gift. Alternatively, you can invite friends to participate, and then the adventure will turn into a real holiday for everyone. In any case, such a surprise will definitely please the birthday boy, and the memory of this wonderful adventure will warm him for a long time!

An approximate scenario for conducting a quest game in an apartment for a husband (beloved man)

This will be the last riddle. The birthday boy’s task is to guess what to do next. The fact is that he needs to look through the photographs and find among them an image of a microwave oven (you need to prepare in advance - take a close-up photograph of the oven). Your loved one will find your gift in it!

If you want to please the birthday boy with more interesting and intricate tasks or you don’t have the time and opportunity to find good ideas and arrange everything beautifully, we bring to your attention. Based on the titles of the articles, you can find a suitable quest game scenario for any age.

Every year we give children gifts with riddles - it’s a whole quest, moving from one riddle to another, the child eventually finds a gift.

I came up with this myself when Yaroslav was little. There were no names like “quest” back then. I just wanted to entertain the child and surprise him. From a reading book she took riddles about everyday things - a refrigerator, a closet, shoes, a bathroom, laid out notes there, and handed the first one to him. There was delight - it’s impossible to describe!

And now this happens to us every year. My imagination for riddles is already exhausted. And this time I asked Yaroslav to find for my brother interesting riddles and puzzles.

Yaroslav tried and found riddles that I didn’t even know. I spent an hour on the Internet :)

I am sharing with you the finished quest design:

1. We hand the first note to the child. We had her in the “hands” of an inflatable Mickey Mouse

2. The unit trembles,
There is a thaw and a cold in it,
He is very happy at work
If you turn it off, it will sit in a puddle. ( Fridge)

3. There is a note in the refrigerator about closet

He stands in the corner against the wall.
Oh, he looks huge
But he is not punished at all.
Mom keeps things in it.

There is another note in the closet. You just need to hide it somewhere in a visible place, otherwise the closet is big, you could spend a day looking for the note

4. I am neither a sea nor a river,
I am not a lake, not a pond,
But like morning or evening -
People are all running towards me. ( Bath)

It’s interesting that I inserted a note into a vase with shells on the mirror, it was directly visible. But the children searched together and couldn’t find it! Apparently the mirror has magical properties make objects invisible.

5. And one more puzzle had to be solved in order to get to the treasured gift

Balcony

I tried to arrange the notes so that Gleb would have to run from one part of the apartment to the opposite: from the nursery to the kitchen, back to the nursery, to the bathroom, to the balcony.

And then Gleb asked me: “Mom, how do you manage to sneak in quietly and spread out all the notes without even waking me up?”

The answer suggests itself: “When you become a dad, you won’t be able to do anything like that” :)

Today is the last day of the New Year's quest for children and we will start looking for a New Year's gift.

Checklist for a quest for children to find a New Year's gift

Not far from the Christmas tree, place Santa Claus's hat and a message from the forest animals on the floor.
Place a word or picture of a table on the tray and cover it with semolina. Place it next to you cocktail straw. Place a tray with semolina near the Christmas tree.
Place a glass of juice on the table, having previously pasted the word door on the bottom (from the outside).
Place the “path” task behind the door. At the last point, place the Christmas tree and a green marker.
Hang a task with a teapot clue on the Christmas tree.
We put together a snowman puzzle at the teapot, and hide the top part with the hat in a bucket.
We put the clock puzzle into the bucket along with the top part of the puzzle.
We put 3 boxes next to the clock and paste examples on each one. For younger children you can write numbers
In the largest one we put materials for crafts and nearby there is an image of the Snow Queen herself and a riddle about the closet. If you don’t want to do a craft, you can hide a riddle in a box. We hide the gift in the closet.

Scenario for a children's quest for the New Year to find a gift

When the baby wakes up, most likely he will run under the Christmas tree to look for his gifts from Grandfather Frost. My children always celebrate the New Year this way :)

I have highlighted all your possible remarks in bold italics. You can ask questions and tips at your own discretion.

There is no gift. How strange, I definitely heard that someone came at night. Look, Grandfather Frost dropped his hat. Oh, there's a note in the header.

We ask the child to blow on the semolina through a straw. This task may be a little dirty, so place a broom and dustpan nearby in advance . If your baby is unable to blow the porridge, ask him to rake the porridge with his hands. We find a clue under the semolina

Let's go to the table

Strange, I don't see any more clues. I wonder where this glass of juice came from here? Maybe this is a hint? Let's try to drink it

When the baby drinks the juice, we find the door clue and go to the nearest one. There we find a new clue. You can create it yourself, customizing it to your apartment. For example, I had this:

walk three steps forward;
turn left;
take one step back;
turn 90 degrees;
go up the stairs;
turn right;
walk straight six steps

And the child went to the chest of drawers, where the next clue lay.

Look, a new task. Here you need to paint over all the letters E. What happened? That's right, Christmas tree. Probably another clue on the tree. Let's run quickly

We find a riddle on the tree.

Where does our water boil? That's right in a teapot. Let's go quickly

We find a snowman puzzle by the teapot.

Strange, one piece of the puzzle is missing. Which one do you think? That's right, the snowman doesn't have a hat. What is a snowman's hat usually made from? That's right from the bucket. Now we need to find a bucket.

We find a riddle in the bucket and read it.

Us you need to inspect all the clocks in the house . The clue should be somewhere nearby. Here she is.

How many times does the clock strike at midnight? Correct 12. Look, you need to solve the examples and find the box with the correct answer.

Look, here are the materials for crafts. Let's give the Snow Queen a crown as a gift. After all, everyone really likes it when they are given gifts.

Let's do a craft. We did this one.

If you don’t want to do crafts, you can put a riddle about the closet in the box.

Look, there's the Snow Queen.

We speak on behalf Snow Queen: « No one has ever given me gifts before. That's why I wanted to take yours. And you are such a kind boy (girl). You made a beautiful crown especially for me. I will never steal anyone's gifts again and will return yours to you from Santa Claus. Just solve the riddle first».

Quest tasks are a very interesting and popular entertainment. Players are given various riddles and clues, with the help of which they move from one point of a given route to the next, receiving pleasant surprises for this.

Questions asked to participants are often united by one topic that the quest is dedicated to. The main requirement for their composition is diversity and unusualness. The degree of fun of the game depends on how difficult they are. But when coming up with clues, it is also important not to go too far and not make them overly complex.

Main classification

The simplest tasks for quests in terms of level of preparation are questions in notes. They are encrypted on pieces of paper that participants need to find or earn at each stage of the competition. There are many varieties of them.

The name of the next point of movement is cut into separate letters, which, when put together correctly, participants will know where to go next.
Use of puzzles and charades. They can combine pictures, numbers, letters, which, if interpreted correctly, give clues about the further route of movement.
Riddles in logical series. For example: “Heat comes from the oven, but where does the cold come from?”
An option in the best spy traditions is tips written on paper using melted wax. To find out the answer, you need to color the leaf with colored pencils.
Placement of signs along the entire route. But these do not necessarily have to be ordinary arrows. You can use flowers of a certain type or traces of an animal. Tasks are often done in this form for For example, you can tell them: “Follow in the footsteps of the lion cub and you will find a pleasant surprise.”
The phrase that makes up the clue may contain mixed words. Players need to place them in the correct order. This is the only way they will know what to do next.
The assignment is written backwards and must be read correctly.
The hint is written on paper using lemon juice or milk. Along with the leaf, participants are given a candle and a lighter, thanks to the heat from the fire of which the words should appear and direct the players to the next point.
Digital encryption of words is used. For example, instead of each letter its serial number in the alphabet is written. The key to the puzzle must be guessed or won at one of the previous stages.
As a task for an indoor quest, you can use an object located in the room in several copies, one of which contains hidden instructions regarding further actions. This could be a book, a box, a nightstand and the like.
Another one is the use of clues written in the form. Deciphering them is not an easy task, but it is very exciting and interesting.
Riddles can be encrypted using pictures, each of which symbolizes part of the name of the next destination.
Messages are also placed with magnets on the refrigerator door.
Notes are hidden inside cookies, candies and other products.

In order for participants to successfully complete all stages of the competition and get the maximum amount of pleasure from it, the tips must be interesting and original. For victory in each individual stage and the game as a whole, you need to prepare prizes.

Since the tasks for quests directly depend on the chosen topic of the competition, we will consider the most popular options for conducting it.

You can get confused even within four walls

You don't have to go outside to play this game. The indoor quest tasks are no less exciting than the outdoor ones. There are several varieties of this type of game.

Escape from the room. Just by the name itself it is clear where this competition is held. Its essence is that participants are locked in an entire apartment or a separate room, and with the help of clues they must find the key to get out of it. This is very unusual and interesting way for entertaining guests who come, for example, to celebrate a birthday.
Tasks for quests in the office Great for surprising your boss. If the company is small, each employee can come up with one puzzle for the boss and thoroughly enjoy watching him rush around the building in search of a solution and his gift. The office is an ideal place to hide a lot of clues, solving which will be an unforgettable entertainment.
Interesting examples of tasks for a quest in a shopping center. And if it is also large, you can organize a truly unforgettable game in it. After all, in large shopping complexes you can often get lost, even just while shopping, and what can we say about looking for clues and solving puzzles! For example, you could give participants a photo of a dress and they would have to find out its price. But first you need to find a boutique that sells this particular model of clothing item. Also, as an option, hide the piece of paper with the next task in some jacket, which you will also need to find from the photo. But in the case of this task, you will need to warn the store staff in advance so that no one accidentally sells this item to anyone.

We turn on our brains to the fullest

Who said that intellectuals can only be measured by their knowledge? They can be no less nimble and active than others. If you have a few of these bookworms among your friends, get them out of their textbook-strewn rooms and into the fresh air.

Arrange for them a quest in the style of the TV shows “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?”, “The Smartest” and “What? Where? When?" Prepare encrypted messages-hints on knowledge of various facts from history, geography, physics, biology and any other sciences. Make sure that the answer to each question serves as a clue to your next destination.

You can also organize a similar test for your significant other on the anniversary of your relationship or on any other occasion. Only in this case, questions must be tied to dates, places and events from life together.

If your “victim” loves the TV series “The Big Bang Theory”, involve its main character Sheldon Cooper in the case. The confusing notes, written in an abstruse style in the style of this eccentric physicist, will greatly amuse any connoisseur of intellectual humor and will make him rack his brains thoroughly over the clues.

For the little ones

Children's tasks for a quest game can be no less exciting and interesting than adults. To organize such a competition for your child and his friends, use your favorite cartoon or computer game characters. Write your questions on pieces of paper with a picture of a particular character. You can use images from one cartoon, organizing the entire quest in its style, or from several at once.

The computer game “Klondike” can serve as an excellent source of inspiration. Quests and tasks invented on its basis consist of searching for various artifacts related to the theme of the Wild West. For greater realism, children can be dressed up or fully dressed up in the best traditions of Westerns.

Participants can go in search of treasure, following the directions of the map. On it you will depict several streets closest to the house, designing it in the style of the Klondike game. Quests and tasks of this type involve searching for treasure, opening hiding places, asking friends for help, etc. This adventure will bring kids a lot of joy and pleasant gifts. Any holiday with such a game will become an unforgettable event in the life of every child.

“Klondike”, the quests and tasks in which are very exciting and varied, is far from the only option. A moving quiz in the style of the movie “Pirates of the Caribbean” would also be great. At the final destination of the journey, a man dressed up as Jack Sparrow will be waiting for them, who will present the treasure to the winner.

Hiding the answers away

You can come up with a wide variety of interesting tasks for the quest. For example, use your old suitcase with Hide the grand prize in it. And let the participants collect the code that will help open it, one by one, throughout the game.

To come up with tasks for quests in the apartment, use a deck of cards. Scratch directions for the next step on the end of it and give it a good shuffle. To make out the message, players will have to put the cards in the right order. Give them a hint that says something like “Hearts, clubs, spades and diamonds will reveal to you the secrets of the future.” This will let players know what cards they should be looking for and what order they should put them in.

We present gifts in an original way

To give an unusual gift to the birthday boy, you can also use a quest. Birthday tasks can be very different. For example, you can arrange a whole trip around the city in search of a present. The end point will be a dressing room with a bunch of boxes, in one of which the treasured souvenir will be hidden, and to find it, you will have to open them all.

You can also arrange an exciting quest around the city, the tasks of which will lead the birthday boy to a place where a surprise congratulatory party awaits him. Here's how you can start your journey. Leave a piece of cake in your friend’s room the night before with a note containing something like this: “Well, your birthday has come. Today everything will be for you, but to get the prepared pleasures, you will have to work hard. After all, nothing in this life comes easy. And even your holiday is no exception. To start, dress comfortably, eat some cake, and recharge your energy with some coffee. You’ll soon find out what to do next.”

If you are going to give the birthday boy some clothes or jewelry, you can leave the following message in the coffee can: “I hope you liked the cake and you finally woke up completely. If yes - well done! Now take something stylish with you and go in search of your happiness.” Even if there is no surprise among the things, you can simply hide a note in the closet with further instructions.

If you want to give a mobile phone as a birthday present in an unusual way, let the participant receive one number at each stage of the game. They will consist of a phone number, by calling which, in the end the birthday person will find his gift.

We fight the insidious numbers

You can come up with a quest using numbers in a variety of ways. These can be either the most basic tasks like counting the number of steps in a house, or sophisticated puzzles. You can encrypt the code in a magazine or book. Participants will first have to guess the name of the required publication, and then use the given page, line and word numbers to find a clue to the next action.

Quest tasks also often consist of unraveling the phone number of the person who received the key to the next step by email. To guess the treasured numbers, you need to find information on the Internet as quickly as possible about the height, age of stars or dates of famous and not so famous events. Such a puzzle might look like this.

A good example

“Are you finally here? I can’t even believe that I finally made it! I am sure that you will not go further, because this task is clearly not up to you. The fact is that the necessary code was sent to one person, whose name I will not say. You can only contact him by phone, but you won’t get his number either. Whether you like it or not, you will have to guess it. So the first number is Arnold Schwarzenegger's weight in grams, you need the second number. Next is the fourth number from the year of birth of Leonardo DiCaprio. Then - the second growth figure of his Wolf of Wall Street co-star. Renee Zellweger's birthday month. Then - the second half of Penelope Cruz's foot size. And the last number is the date when Jason Statham's girlfriend was born. May the great star expert Google help you!

Examples of tasks for a quest of this type can be encrypted as your heart desires, and use any wording that comes to your mind. Since completing this task requires the help of an Internet search engine, you can ask questions of any complexity. It is also not forbidden to mention stars in whose biographies your friend-player is not very strong. But to make it even more interesting for him to look for answers, you can ask for information about his idols.

Hollywood to the rescue!

Tasks for quests in the office and on the street can be organized in the style of any films and TV series of the group of people for whom the game is being played. You can come up with a myriad of riddle options.

For example, you can use the “Men in Black” theme in a very interesting way by starting the competition with the following note: “Greetings, Earthling! We, Agent K and Agent J, need your help. We have detected it coming but have not yet identified the planet from which it was sent. This could be a warning to people about an alien invasion of Earth, so they need to act very quickly. The message is encrypted. The best of our agents are struggling to decipher it, but they can’t do it without you. We have parts of the message, but without help we cannot reconstruct all its contents. Start searching the entire text immediately! You will be Agent M and will receive all the necessary data from Agent B. Don’t forget that the fate of the planet is in your hands! See you later!

A sea of topics

An interesting hunt for monsters can be organized during a quest in the style of the TV series “Supernatural”. For lovers of royal intrigue, the ideal option is the Game of Thrones competition. And for fans of The Walking Dead, an unforgettable surprise will be a meeting with the zombie apocalypse on the streets of the city.

“The Lord of the Rings”, “Harry Potter”, “Transformers”, “Fast and the Furious”, “Batman”... This list can be continued indefinitely, because any popular film is simply a storehouse of facts that can be used to write riddles. The same can be said about online entertainment. For example, the game “Klondike” is perfect for this purpose; its quests and tasks will make the holiday unforgettable.

So, the quest starts in the morning, because you want to receive gifts immediately after waking up. The daughter already understands that she will not have to wait for easy ways to receive a gift - and receives a hint where to look for the first task (under her pillow). The correct answer to each task is the path to the next stage of the quest.

Under the pillow there is an envelope with a riddle.

The answer is a camera.

So, we should look for the next clue in the camera. Previously, I photographed the place that was supposed to be the next stage of the quest. Dasha takes the camera out of the table, turns it on, and sees a photo of a washing machine.

We go to the bathroom and get into the washing machine. There is an envelope with a puzzle there. Putting the puzzle together - this is a pillow.

Puzzle (cut arbitrarily into 4-6 parts):

There are several pillows in the house, and it is not immediately possible to find the one you need - under which a bag is hidden. The bag contains several containers for Kinder Surprise. You need to open them until a riddle is revealed in one of the containers.

Obviously, this is a vacuum cleaner. We stomp onto the balcony where the vacuum cleaner is stored, and on the box with it we find a labyrinth with Dasha the Traveler.

Labyrinth:

Having correctly walked through the labyrinth, we will reach the desired goal. This is an oven.

Our next stage is the kitchen. We open the oven and find a code note in the frying pan. Each letter is assigned a numerical value, the task is to solve the code based on the sign.

We solve it, read the word - COMPUTER.

We run to the computer and turn it on. First, I took a photo and uploaded it to the computer on the next (and last) stage of the quest. Before putting the computer into sleep mode, I opened the image - this way, when I turn it on, it is immediately visible. So, the last stage of the quest is the wardrobe.

We hurry into the corridor, open one door, then another - and here it is, our gift. Or rather, gifts! Hurray, the quest for the children's birthday is completed! Happy birthday!

Developing such a birthday quest took about half an hour, and the same amount of time was spent on preparation. The tasks should not be complicated, over which you will have to rack your brain for a long time: it should be simple, fun, interesting and in no case spoil the child’s mood. Of course, for older children you can come up with more difficult tasks. As you can see, this is not a labor-intensive activity that guarantees a lot of positivity for both the child and his parents. Give your children happiness - it's that simple!

Good afternoon friends! Today my friend Natalya will tell you how to arrange a quest for your husband on his wedding anniversary.

I thank her for allowing me to tell you about this day, because everything turned out very great. I am sure that every woman, if desired, can prepare such an interesting surprise for her loved one, just as Natasha did. Spend the day in an unusual way, surprise, evoke emotions. I think pleasant memories will definitely remain in the memory of each spouse.

I give the floor to Natalya.

Quest for husband for wedding anniversary. An unusual gift for a loved one

The wedding day was approaching - 12 years. It seems like it’s not a round date, but I really wanted a holiday! As they say, if you want a miracle, create a miracle yourself. No sooner said than done. I’ll arrange a romantic quest for my husband to visit the places of our student cake and bouquet celebrations.

The day fell on Sunday. This was very convenient, because by that time we had a 2.5-year-old son and someone else needed to place him. I agreed with my husband’s sister that she would babysit the child and then bring him to the final destination of my quest. It took me a week to think through the details and prepare the material. It should still be beautiful and interesting!

I have prepared six messages in the form of romantic letters. It’s easy to make envelopes yourself or buy suitable ones. I did it myself.

The first letter was beautifully placed on the car.

I asked our student friends (by the way, they got married 20 days later than us and were direct witnesses to the development of events that led to our wedding) to videotape my husband during the quest.

Morning 8:00, we get up early even on weekends. The husband has no idea at all. I sent them and my son for a walk, and I got ready and ran out of the house. My sister-in-law should arrive by 9 o'clock, and my friends by 10. The day before, I recorded a message on my phone for my husband, inviting him on a trip. As soon as I left the house, I sent him a video via Watsapp. How convenient it is that now there are such technical capabilities!

I had enough time, but I was afraid of being late and was in a hurry. There was only one “plug”: I couldn’t get into the entrance where we kissed for the first time. On Sunday morning it is difficult to wait for the rush of residents coming and going from the entrance. I waited for about 10 minutes, even called the intercom in a random apartment, no one answered. Fortunately, a guy soon came out of the entrance and opened the door for me.

I posted all the other letters without any incidents.

Just in case, I sent photos to friends so that they could tell my husband if he couldn’t figure out something on his own.

Well, at the same time I filmed my impressions and memories.

The final destination of my quest was a room on the 19th floor at the Gorskiy city hotel.

We got married at a time when no one had heard of digital cameras, and the first the wedding night usually took place in an apartment full of guests who had arrived for the wedding. Well, in general, the number is kind of logical :)

Everything turned out even better in the end than I had planned.

My husband, myself and my friends had a lot of impressions.

We remembered our youth and all the wonderful things that happened there. In the evening, my husband’s sister brought us our son, we walked around the city on foot, spent the night and had breakfast at the hotel. We went in different directions - my husband went to work, and we went home. But there was an indescribable feeling of happiness and joy, as if not a day had passed, but an eternity.

Natasha told us this wonderful story about a family holiday.

In my opinion, a quest for a husband on a wedding anniversary is a great way to escape from the drabness of everyday life, give yourself and your loved one a romantic mood, immerse yourself in wonderful memories and lift each other’s spirits.

What do you think? Write your impressions of the gift in the comments!

If you are puzzled by how to turn a banal gift presentation into an original congratulation, then you are ready for the fact that you will have to spend your time not only looking for a present, but also preparing something interesting and memorable. This will require more time and a little imagination. So how to prepare original congratulations? In the previous article we talked about how to give a gift using balloons. If you want something more dynamic and exciting, make a quest game out of presenting a gift. We offer you some interesting ideas.

The following articles will help you decide on a gift:

The first idea is "Treasure Island".

This option is suitable for those who live with the person for whom the gift is intended, since you need to know the habits of the “object” well and have access to his personal belongings.

First, let's draw a map. To do this, you will need whatman paper - you don’t have to use all of it, it’s just that the density of this paper is just right for this purpose. This could be a plan of your apartment, house, or a map of an entire neighborhood - it depends on the scale of the quest you are planning. We indicate the place where the gift is hidden. To make the card look impressive, it can be “aged”. This is a troublesome task, but in the end you will get a masterpiece that can be used in films!

The drawn card needs to be lightly rubbed and wrinkled, then held a little over a candle - the paper will darken. The main thing is not to get carried away - do not bring whatman paper too close to the fire, but hold it for more than a couple of seconds, otherwise the paper will become brittle. It's better to practice on a separate piece of paper first so you don't have to redraw everything from scratch. Carefully burn the corners of the card and extinguish them immediately. The map is ready!

Now...tear it into pieces. Preferably not very small ones - 6 or 8. Place them in envelopes. Now let's prepare the tips. For example, when presenting breakfast in bed, we present a card with congratulations and a hint that will help you find the first piece of the card - “If you break through the wall, you will see silver, if you break through silver, you will see gold.” The answer is an egg, you need to guess the riddle and guess that something (in our case, a piece of a map) is hidden next to the eggs. So, in the refrigerator in the egg tray. You can, of course, and with an egg it all depends on your imagination. So, there is the first piece of the card, the next clue can be given right away, or you can hide it in the bathroom next to a tube of toothpaste, in shoes, in the mailbox - the main thing is that you must be sure that the “object” will look there. Get someone to help you. A piece of the card can, for example, be given to a watchman at the entrance or to a security guard at the company where the person works, to a seller at a newspaper or cigarette kiosk, or to someone you know. The place where the gift is hidden must be indicated on the last piece of the card. As soon as all the pieces are collected, the climax comes - we go to the indicated place and take the prize! After such a quest, there is no other way to describe the gift.

And one more thing - choose this option if you know for sure that the person who will participate in the game is quite passionate and likes to rack his brains over various logical problems.

The second idea is “Labyrinth”.

The option is not only interesting, but also looks impressive. Very suitable if you are preparing a surprise for a child.

Buy three large pieces of ribbon in different colors in advance. They are sold by the meter at any fabric store. Right from the bed we begin to entangle them throughout the room.

Only one ribbon indicates the path to the main gift; others lead either to a dead end or to small “consolation” gifts.

The third idea is “Luggage Storage”.

To implement this idea, you will need a storage locker, for example at a train station. We hide the gift there. We photograph the entire route - notable places that a person can navigate - his house, a transport stop, the desired bus number, the station building (or other place where the cell is located). It is usually prohibited to take photographs in the building itself; you can try to simply capture the inscription “luggage storage” and indicate the number of the locker itself in another way.

On the morning of the appointed day, the person responsible for the entire event receives an envelope with photographs. Most likely, he will guess that his gift is in the storage room, and that he needs to go get it. The only thing missing is the cell code. How to report it? You can, for example, do this - friends send one text of congratulations, each one word in SMS, but with a cell code number: “We are 5”, “...congratulations to 3”, “you 1”, “happy 4”, “happy 6” , "birth 2"! All that remains is to compare all the data and go for the gift. But be sure to keep the lucky one company - just to be on the safe side. And try to have documents with you at the station, just in case.

Idea four - “Warm and cold”.

This game is suitable for giving a gift to small children. Hide a gift in the room and ask your child to find it by playing the warm-cold game. First, explain the rules. If the child comes close to the right place, we say: “warmer, warmer...!”; if he goes the wrong way, we say: “colder, colder... completely cold!” If you come very close, we say: “Hot!” This will be a signal that the place where the gift is hidden has been found.

Idea five - “Remember everything”.

Take note if you are going to prepare a surprise for a special date or wedding anniversary for your significant other.

Remember all the places that are dear to both of you - the cafe where you met, the bench where you kissed for the first time, the cinema, the train station - in this case it is impossible to give clear instructions. Make hint notes, crossword puzzles or puzzles where these places and important dates will be indicated. You can use a photo. Make and think through the route, hide the clues. It would be great if you could involve friends or acquaintances. Guessing the next rebus or encrypted word, your partner will look for the main prize. What will it be - romantic dinner, a nice gift or something more intimate - decide for yourself. The scale of the quest can be very different, up to a trip to another city, if necessary! Surprise your loved ones more often!

Whatever idea you choose, add your own additions to it, spend a little time preparing and you will succeed! You will have something to tell your grandchildren!

Every year, on the eve of their birthday, all children are overcome with such impatience that words cannot express it! If only the time had come to celebrate their next birthday! But how can you make sure that the birthday person remembers this day for many years, makes it interesting and unique? Of course, go in search of an unforgettable adventure.

Here you should not let everything take its course, study the proposed scenarios that abound on the Internet, because you should organize the event according to all the rules. You can invite animators, there are no problems with this in Moscow, or you can use a ready-made holiday script, which the Internet is full of. Perhaps the most beloved and interesting, both for children and adults, crowning any rating, is an adventure game, that is, a quest, as any entertainment event speaks about this.

A quest (quest from the English “task”, “search”, “hike”) is a mini-adventure, its script usually has several stages. Today, this is one of the popular and modern ways to celebrate a holiday at home or outdoors. Depending on the focus, all tasks must be completed collectively or individually.

Each one ends with a new task or mini-prize. There are so many steps that need to be completed so that the children invited to the birthday party don’t get bored. The best collections that help organize adventures in finding a gift say that 6-10 is the optimal number of tasks. You can do it outdoors, in the forest, or an ordinary room will do if the game is not a team one.

Puzzles

The key element of the quest, when you are planning to organize a search for a gift, are clue riddles hidden according to the adventure scenario. You can come up with them yourself or borrow them from various sources where there are ready-made scripts for children’s birthdays. The rating of the puzzles depends on the difficulty.

The tasks can be designed beautifully and creatively, or you can find a ready-made template in which to enter the tasks and then print them out. For children who cannot read the assignments, you can read them out or use pictures. To make the search more enjoyable, you can add sweet prizes to the tasks in the form of sweets, chocolate coins and other things.

Use simple and poetic riddles that are easy to solve, otherwise the task risks getting stuck and your mood ruined. You can use mathematical ones and, for example, you can make a homemade puzzle. You can use gadgets and send tasks by email, stick QR codes on objects, or leave links to videos or pictures on the Internet.

If you want to give several gifts, you can use
poetic riddles to search for:

Looking for a hidden surprise

You can take riddles, the answers to which will be your favorite cartoon characters (in the form of toys, books or pictures), who will give a hint:

The next stage of preparation in an adventure scenario for children is laying out tasks and surprises to carry out the search. You need to make sure that each subsequent riddle points to the next waypoint in your game.

You can start by hiding the first clue in a place where you can quietly push the guests or the birthday boy in the right direction, if the room in which the search for a gift is going on does not want to part with its secrets. You can also hand over the first task in person, send it as an SMS, or ask your friends to hand it over in the form of a letter. Next, distribute subsequent tasks along the chain.

Think ahead original text in the scenario of the adventure itself, can be included in it, giving the start and setting the tone for the chosen scenario. It all depends on the hobbies of the birthday boy and the invited children.

The next question that needs to be addressed is: where is it most convenient for children to conduct a quest on such a significant day? There can be a lot of options: from your own apartment, to an outdoor adventure: in a city park, in a country house, and even on your own personal plot.

Quest Garden plot, at home or in the country

Team quest for children, looking for a gift

A team game is a special type of game, as it can include previous ideas for a search team or be, for example, a competitive type adventure when 2 teams participate. This scenario can be used not only for a birthday, but also for joint events in the classroom or in kindergarten. Based on the results of the game, you can make a rating of the smartest players.

The goal of this game is to find a hidden gift faster than the opposing team, or the second option, which involves the collective play of both teams. Alternatively, each team separately from the other must find its own part of the map, combining which you can find a common prize.
For team competitions you can take various games, for example:

Game “I am a director today”

You can also play mimes and pretend:

Progress of the game

The course of the birthday game for children should be smooth, moving from one point to another; you, as the leader of the holiday, should, if necessary, guide and prompt players who may get stuck and become confused (anything can happen). Although you shouldn’t rush, still give the children a chance to figure out the task themselves.

Entertainment such as quest rooms have become quite popular. This is where the imagination of the authors will provide you with real scenery and special effects, as well as unimaginable scenarios for the development of familiar plots; just type it into a search engine and you will be given a rating of the popularity of these establishments in Moscow.

Quest for a boy

As mentioned above, scripts for boys may differ from the plot in scripts for girls. Therefore, you need to prepare properly and take into account the interests of the birthday boy and his friends and do everything perfectly.

You can use logical tasks from matches (how to turn one number into another), easy chemical experiments, mark the numbering of books on the shelves, you can use stereograms, mixing paints, and tongue twisters for hints.

If you don’t have time for personal preparation, you can visit a room with theatrical quests in Moscow. The rating of such entertainment for children and adults is quite high and the themes depend on age, and you can also participate with your children. Themes are varied: space, cartoon, literary, military, pirate, fantasy and horror.

For example, a detective script:

1) Preparation

All tasks are designed for one participant, but if desired, a group of friends will not hurt.
Presenter: adult (one of the parents or a guest animator).
Time: about 1 hour.
Venue: apartment.
Age of participant: boy 7 years or older (can be remade for a girl if she likes this genre).
This scenario would be ideal if you decide to give your child a live puppy or kitten.

Necessary materials:

an envelope with the image of your favorite detective (classic Sherlock Holmes, Dasha the Explorer, Diego and others), paper and pen
some attribute of a “detective costume”
flash drive, phone, tablet, or laptop - any gadget on which you can play recorded audio files
5 different "footprints" of a dog or cat's paw cut out of paper (each in several copies)
toy or live dog or cat (depending on the gift)

2) Beginning

We start in the hallway. There is an envelope with the first task sticking out in the door or under it; if the child does not notice it right away, say that “it seems like someone was knocking” or “oh, what is that.” So, the envelope is in your hands.
The child must print the envelope and read the letter.

The text of the letter can be changed according to the chosen chief detective and style: “Dear friend! I have to ask you for help. A terrible story happened to me: (let your imagination run wild and write in the plot). I ask you for help! You will find everything you need for your search in the place that is located in the house, and at the same time - on the street.

Sincerely, (name of the chosen hero)."

The child’s task is to figure out where the box with the necessary attributes is hidden. This is a balcony. If it's hard to understand right away. Then use the hint and form a word from the letters left in the envelope. The little detective must form the word “balcony”.

3) Investigation

We go to the balcony and find a box there, take out the attributes of the “detective costume”, and put it on. The box contains a memory card (any memory medium, depending on the selected gadget), a note and “traces”.

The text of the note: “Evidence has been collected here, it will help in our case. Listen to the recordings and identify the voice of the Baskerville dog (hero cat and others - according to the script), and then follow the trail.”

Five sound audio files with different voices of barking dogs or meowing cats are pre-recorded on the memory card. Files need to be numbered. One of them will belong to the Hound of the Baskervilles or (hero cat). We do it this way - let the child listen to the desired voice 1-2 times to remember it. Then listen to everything in any order and find out which of the recordings belongs to the desired dog or cat.

It may happen that you don’t succeed the first time, no problem, repeat the task.

When the desired file is recognized, the child must remember or write down in a notebook, like a real detective, the number of the desired file.

Now it's time to study the mysterious footprints of the dog (cat) in the box, all the “paw prints” are numbered. In the room we will also have 5 types of different traces without numbers, but of different sizes, you can even play with the color, going from the balcony to certain areas of the room (glue it with tape to be sure). Only one of them is correct.

The task is to take a trace with the desired number from the tracks in the box (this is the number of the guessed sound file), and find the same one on the floor. Having found the right direction, we will follow the trail until it leads us to the next goal. This will be the closet.

4) Search

Inside the closet, in a visible place, there is a note attached and several wardrobe items are hanging, for example, a shirt, coat, jacket, jacket, trousers, etc. It is better to temporarily move unnecessary and repetitive items to another closet.

Text of the note: “Dear friend! You are a real detective! Be careful: here are hanging the things of a criminal who is hiding the location of the dog (cat). You need to carefully search these things and find the missing puzzle pieces, from which you need to assemble a word. This word will show you the further path.”

Seven pieces of paper with letters are hidden in the pockets of things, each with 1 letter. If things to be searched have many pockets, then the search will be more exciting. The child’s task is to find all the letters and form the word “corridor” from them. From the letters you need to make up the name of the next room with the task, for example, kitchen, corridor, living room.

After this you can move to this room.

5) Brainstorming tasks

On the floor in the selected room lies an envelope with another note for the young detective.
Note text: “Great job! You are getting closer and closer to the goal. The next task is to use logic and deduction to solve all the riddles. Only then can you get an answer as to where to move next.”

The presenter sequentially asks riddles:

You can find a lot. You can use numbered cards and a card with the voice (trace) number from the initial tasks, it will be about an item in the home environment, you will hide the next clue in this item.

After that, he needs to search the hidden object and find a dog collar in it (if the gift is a puppy or a bow on a string if it is a kitten). A note “go to the next room” will be attached to the collar (bow) (if there is only one room, then you can use the kitchen or bathroom).

A stuffed dog or cat (if a toy is planned) will be waiting for the winner in the next room. If the animal is real, then it is unlikely that you will be able to persuade it to sit quietly, so in the end the search should take you outside and there your assistant in the person of a relative or friend will present the treasured gift.

This is, of course, a short script, but what prevents you from taking it as a basis and creating your own version.

For girl

Girls can cope with tasks for boys no worse, but they still like slightly different genres. The rating of entertainment for girls is headed by: fairies, princesses and fairy-tale adventures.
A scenario for a girl can be based on the plot of her favorite fairy tale or on testing her skills as a hostess, or even combine everything at once - the main thing is that it is interesting, and the birthday remains in the memory as an incredible adventure.

The logic for the scenario for a girl is similar to the above scenario for a boy. Let's just change the main character.

Only after waking up, the girl can find a flower or an envelope, and in it a note that her favorite fairy or princess is asking for her help. You can write assignments in verse, involve your favorite toys, flowers on the windowsill, and outfits in the mysteries. Moving around the room at the end, you can make up a word inviting you to continue the celebration in a cafe or amusement park and present the main gift there.

Probably, each of us loves holidays, especially when they are dedicated to us. But when a loved one becomes the hero of the occasion, a problem arises. Moreover, this gift should be original, modern, beautiful, fashionable, and sometimes inexpensive. Nowadays there are many different gift shops, whose windows are literally full of the most outlandish gifts.

But love and attention cannot be bought in stores. Thanks to quest to find treasure made with your own hands, your gift and congratulations will be even more valuable. Irina Bondarenko prepared it for her husband’s birthday.

Preliminary preparation of the quest

So, to organize a quest at home you will need:

4 envelopes,
felt-tip pens or markers,
set of colored cardboard
and 1 Kinder Surprise.

The The quest is dedicated to finding a gift. It consists of 6 tips. Clues can be hidden in your apartment. From each clue found, it should be clear where to look for the next one.

Hints are best designed colorfully and beautifully. To do this you will need colored cardboard and markers. Or you can print ready-made templates.

Place cards with hints in envelopes that need to be distributed throughout the apartment. If desired, the envelopes can also be painted.

Remember that your husband will be looking for the gift you hid. Your task is to hide the gift in such a secluded corner that your spouse will not find it ahead of time.

And yet, there can be any number of hints. But don't make the quest too long or short. In the first case, it will be tiring, and in the second, the husband will find the gift too quickly and will not have time to fully experience the charm of the game. It is best to prepare a scenario consisting of 6-10 tasks.

Quest script for a man

Task one

Prepare a card made of colored cardboard with an offer to complete the quest. Leave the following clue on the card: “The clue is in the envelope, and the envelope is with the striped predator. Find the envelope." In this case we are talking about a tiger. In our apartment we have a lot of different crafts and soft toys. One of my favorite toys is a tiger. I placed the next envelope next to it.

Task two

Write a hint on a cardboard card: “Look for the next envelope under the most exotic tree in our apartment.” To make it more interesting, the hint card can be cut into 8 pieces and placed in an envelope. Write on the envelope: “ Assemble the puzzle».

This clue is about a palm tree. The fact is that my husband is interested in growing flowers. His favorite plant is dracaena, which in our family everyone calls a palm tree. I placed the next hint exactly under the dracaena.

Task three

Prepare the following note: “If you break through the wall, you will see silver, if you break through silver, you will see gold.” The answer to the riddle is an egg. Therefore, I hid the next clue in what I purchased in advance.

Task four

The hint included in Kinder Surprise reads as follows: “Russian-English dictionary, page 930, 1 column, second word from the top.” This word is stroller. In this case we are talking about a baby stroller. It was in it that I hid the next envelope.

Task five

Write the following on a piece of cardboard: “You need to climb Everest in our apartment.” This refers to the highest place in our apartments, namely the mezzanine. That's where I hid the last envelope.

Task six

The last hint of the quest is as follows: “Look into the coldest compartment of our North Pole.” We are talking about the freezer. It is in it that the present I prepared is hidden.

I hope that thanks to this quest, your the holiday will pass fun and unforgettable. By the way, you can give it not only to your spouse, but also to your brother, father, uncle, godfather and others to a loved one, even a child.

The game is over, a romantic dinner is ahead. Have a great time!
