Adventure one

The Tiny Treasure

Looking for apples under the tree
“Here’s one!” Mimi called — but it wasn’t an apple.
A tiny blue box in the leaves
A tiny blue box. A silver key. A folded clue.
A clue by the birdbath
Find the place where the birds like to splash.
Sunflowers and a yellow clue
Look where something yellow grows.
Mimi unlocking a tiny garden gate
Click. The little key opened the garden gate.
A secret garden of butterflies
Butterflies. “No, Mimi. You found it.”

Grown-up: hide the key and two clues — water, then something yellow — before you open the envelope.

Adventure two

The Mystery of the Missing Bell

The garden gate is quiet
Ting-a-ling? The garden was strangely quiet.
A golden ribbon in the grass
A tiny golden ribbon sparkled in the grass.
Following the ribbon trail
The golden trail led to the butterfly garden.
Finding the bell in the bush
Ting. Caught on a low branch — the bell!
Tying the bell back on the gate
Mystery solved. Ting-a-ling. Ting-a-ling.

Grown-up: hide the bell. Leave a ribbon trail. A doorknob makes a perfect garden gate.

Adventure three

The Secret Map

A treasure map under the fruit bowl
Dotted lines. Tiny pictures. One enormous red X.
A wooden button under the tree
At the biggest tree — a small wooden button.
A tiny paper boat on the pond
On the pond, a tiny paper boat with a note inside.
Cookies for treasure hunters
Treasure hunters need energy. Two chocolate cookies.

Grown-up: hide the button, ribbon, and boat. The last X can be a snack.

Adventure four

The Little Lost Star

A tiny silver star in the grass
A sparkle in the grass. “Maybe this one got lost.”
The star on the windowsill
On the windowsill, so it could see the sky.

Grown-up: this one is bedtime. Dim the lights. Let them choose the windowsill.

Adventure five

The Wishing Stone

Finding the blue wishing stone
A smooth blue stone with a white swirl.
Butterflies land on the stone
“I wish for adventures every day.” Then — butterflies.
Noticing walk home
A ladybug. A feather. A cloud like a dancing elephant.

Grown-up: the walk is the magic. Find one bug, one cloud, one pretty thing.

Adventure six

The Picnic That Flew Away

The perfect picnic
Sandwiches. Cookies. An enormous red blanket.
The wind whooshes the picnic
WHOOSH! Napkins. Then Gigi’s hat.
A blue envelope in the grass
The hat stopped beside a blue envelope.
Rocks on the blanket corners
This time, a rock on every corner. Just in case.

Grown-up: an indoor picnic works. Follow a ribbon to another room. Then snack.
