A treasure hunt using color clues that gets your family up and moving! In this free app, users can use pre-designed hunts like “a hunt towards bedtime” or they can create their own hunts. To design your own hunt, simply record your voice giving as many clues as you want to give. Then, once the clues are recorded, the app will assign each clue a sequence of four colors. You can print out the color sequences on strips of paper with your printer (or simply use crayon and paper to make your own color sequence strips) and hide the color strips in the locations your clues direct the kids to. When you hand the kids your phone and the first strip of colors to start the hunt, the app will be open to a page that shows only six different color blocks. Players tap the colors on the screen in the same order they’re in on the slip of paper and that will unlock your recording of the clue. When they follow the clue to the next spot, they’ll find another strip of colorful squares and the hunt continues. This app is so open-ended and versatile and does a great job of encouraging family members to play together! What creative ways can you think of to use it? Note: the app maker plans to add a shape for each color in a future version of the app to assist colorblind players.
