Wild West Treasure Hunt – The Stagecoach Attack (Ages 6–7)
Something serious happened on the dusty road to town: the stagecoach was attacked, and the money disappeared. The sheriff is overwhelmed, and while there are 7 possible suspects, no one knows who is telling the truth.
In this treasure hunt, kids step into the role of junior detectives. They’ll explore the trail, solve puzzles, follow clues, and use their investigation sheet to eliminate suspects one by one. With each new step, the case becomes clearer—until they finally uncover who stole the loot and bring peace back to the Wild West.
