Christmas Eve 2020 Treasure Hunt

In keeping up with traditions, I had continued to craft this, but forgot to post it.

See last year's version 2019

So here it is. Better late than never.

Wei Xmas Treasure Hunt

It’s Christmas once again
And here I am preparing this game
For you and Xin to play
I hope it won’t be too lame

This game is harder this year
So try not to play in fear
Your first clue is somewhere clean
It can be found near the washing machine

You found it! Well done my son
This seems easier said than done
The next clue is really close by
It is where all our shoes stay dry

Goodness so easy for you it seems
At first glance it felt like a dream
This next clue lies within this rhyme
Enjoy reading this several times!

Wonderful you’ve made it this far
I think your efforts deserve a star
Under a trophy your next clue stands
That trophy you won without using hands

Two final clues, your present is near
Theyl will be tough for you I fear
Get help from the wind if you need
This lies in one of your favourite reads

Argh and still you found me so easily
Are you really that smart, seriously?
Final clue is not pretty as a flower
It’s where you go before your daily shower

Great job well done so well deserved
I tried to make this game long preserved
Since you’ve shown you’re very wise
In your present lies one extra surprise

Merry Christmas, with lots of love,
Papa

Xin Xmas Treasure Hunt

It’s Christmas once again
And here I am preparing this game
For you and Wei to play
I hope it won’t be too lame

The first clue is always the easy one
So let me tell you what I have done
I’ve stuck your clue under a sink
You just have to find the missing link

And so you’ve found me now
Let me make it harder somehow
The next clue is not very far
It can be found on the new sofa

Again so easy it all seems to you
Now solve this if that’s what you can do
I’m stuck right under a chair
A chair in the house somewhere

So far so good about halfway through
Hope all this has been fun for you
Next up is hidden where you sleep
In a pillow while you’re counting sheep

Finally we are down to two last clues
Let’s put your brains to good use
What is green and has four legs
The clue underneath leads you to the egg

And so the final clue, well done!
It feels like I’ve got nowhere to run
The egg is in a cupboard somewhere
Not for clothes or underwear

Great job well done so well deserved
I tried to make this game long preserved
Since you’ve shown you’re very wise
In your present lies one extra surprise

Merry Christmas, with lots of love,
Papa
