After the hunt is finished, sit down with your children.
ASK—Would it have been easier or harder to find the treasure without the instructions?
ASK—What instructions has God given us for living?
SAY—The Bible is God’s instruction book on how to live life and you’ll never find what you’re looking for in life unless you follow Jesus and what He says in the Bible. Listen to what the Bible says about how to stay away from doing bad things.
