A Birthday Scavenger Hunt

 


We wanted to make Aliya's 13th birthday extra special.  We knew that we couldn't have a large party with all of her friends, due to covid, but I planned a scavenger hunt where she was able to receive clues from all of her friends outdoors.  She was really surprised, and even a bit confused at the beginning. The whole family piled in the car and had a blast driving house to house as she collected clues and happy birthday wishes from all of her friends throughout Hollis and Brookline.  

Clue 1 from Dad: Getting your first clue will be a joy.  Look for it with your closest friends that happen to both be a boy. 

Clue 2 from the boys:  Another clue, another chance, go to your friend’s house with whom you have done saxophone, tumbling, and dance.

Clue 3 from Madeline:


Clue 4 from Kaylee:


Clue 5 from Emma:




Clue 6 from Rosalie:

Clue 7 from Ella:


Clue 8 from Payton:
Clue 9 from Mia:

We ended the hunt with a birthday celebration from family and a cake shared with her cousins and grandparents.  It was a special way to celebrate our very special girl.
