The Dino Track Finders – The Great Adventure in the Valley of the Dinosaurs
Dinosaur Treasure Hunt – Become Part of the Brave Dino Crew!
A story-driven scavenger hunt where kids track clues, solve riddles, and recover a lost treasure in Dino Valley.
Deep in the prehistoric jungle, your adventure begins. As the Dino Track Finders, the kids explore
riverbeds, fallen logs, ferns, and hidden rock paths — and help their new dino friends find the way back home.
Along the route, the group meets Lango, Roxy, Tika, Spike, and Toru — five young dinosaurs with special abilities.
Each station continues the story, so children stay excited from the first clue to the final treasure moment.
Best for
- Dino birthday parties and dino-themed playdates
- Kids who love movement + adventure (not just sitting riddles)
- Parents who want fast setup with a clear station flow
- Indoors (living room / hallway route) or outdoors (backyard / park)
Not ideal if…
- You need a screen-based scavenger hunt (this one is printable & hands-on)
- You want a super short 15–20 minute game (this is designed for a real “quest” feel)
Good news: You can still shorten it by using fewer stations or skipping bonus tasks.

The dinosaur scavenger hunt exceeded our expectations! The kids really had to think and combine clues, but it was always manageable.
Saskia Leonhardt (verified owner) –
Great idea, really well done! The tasks are exciting and varied, but for our youngest (4) a few of them were a bit challenging. Still, everyone had lots of fun and we would definitely do it again.
Valentina M. (verified owner) –
The kids were thrilled. Dinosaurs = always a win. Searching for eggs + assembling fossils was the highlight.
Helga B. (verified owner) –
Very well made! Our grandson (9) was thrilled, and all the children were able to join in at the same time.
Frank (verified owner) –
We did the astronaut hunt in the living room because it was raining. It worked surprisingly well — we just placed the stations creatively (kitchen = Mars, bathroom = Saturn 😅). The kids loved it!
Elena Petrova (verified owner) –
Well explained and easy to prepare. I would have preferred slightly shorter texts for the younger kids, but otherwise great.

“We did the scavenger hunt spontaneously on a rainy Saturday. Printed everything quickly, handed out the tasks, added a few small prizes at the end — done! I especially love that you don’t need any specific locations. Perfect for last-minute family activities!”

Overall, a really lovely set that saved us a ton of prep time. The kids had so much fun and were proud of every task they solved.
Marco & Janine –
We couldn’t have done it better ourselves — and honestly, we didn’t want to!
The dino scavenger hunt was perfectly prepared, super easy to follow, and just right for our group of 4- to 6-year-olds. We also hid a few little dino figurines — it made the whole story even more fun.
Frieda B. –
I was skeptical at first whether the scavenger hunt would work for our mixed-age group (4–9 years) — but it was a total hit! Thanks to the two versions, we were able to adjust the tasks perfectly.
Sonja –
What a lovely experience! I did the scavenger hunt spontaneously over the weekend with my two kids — totally stress-free. The mix of movement, riddles, and adventure was perfect. Even my shy son really opened up. Absolutely recommend!
Susanne –
We played the scavenger hunt at our big kid’s dinosaur-themed 6th birthday, and the kids were totally thrilled. Everything worked super well — even when we had to change plans last minute because of the rain. The stations were easy to adjust, and the instructions were clear and really well thought out.
There was only one task where we had to help a little, but it didn’t affect the fun at all. Definitely won’t be our last scavenger hunt! Big praise — and thanks for the great idea.
Ole –
Great scavenger hunt, really well thought out. The kids were thrilled!
