🔊 How do the audio files work?
The audio files come in standard .mp3 format. You can play them with any normal music player on a phone or tablet – no extra app or special software needed. Just download and press play.
2. What is the best way to play them during the scavenger hunt?
The easiest option is to download the files before the hunt starts, so you don't rely on mobile internet outdoors.
For larger groups or outdoor play, a small Bluetooth speaker helps all children hear the story clearly. The files are numbered, so you can play them in the correct order – matching each station.
3. Are they just simple read-aloud audios?
No 🙂 The audio files are designed to be narrative and lively, so the kids feel like they are inside the story. The messages are not just read aloud – they sound like small audio-drama moments at each station. This boosts attention and keeps everyone deeply engaged.

A magical experience for the whole group
I prepared the scavenger hunt as a surprise for our kids (5, 7, and 9) on a rainy weekend — and what can I say? They were excited from the very beginning! The story pulled them in right away, and they searched for the magical clues with so much enthusiasm. Super easy to set up and absolutely recommended!

We did the magic-themed scavenger hunt indoors on a rainy afternoon, and it still worked perfectly! The kids (4–7 years old) were totally excited about the story and the fun riddles. Absolutely recommended!

Fantastic fun for the whole family
I did the scavenger hunt with my two kids (7 and 9) and their friends — and even us adults had a blast! The story is well thought out, the riddles are exciting, and it was great to see the kids working together to figure out the clues. A total recommendation for all little wizards!

Perfect for my daughter’s magic-themed 11th — exactly what I’d hoped for. Armed with a few ‘potions’, the little wizards worked their way round the back yard to the final reward. 9 of them followed the trail for a happy 45 minutes. The clues were pitched just right and never frustrated them. A brilliant bit of fun that I’d recommend without hesitation.

I was really relieved at how simple the setup was. Everything was super well explained, and we were able to set up the scavenger hunt in the garden without any problems. The kids (5–8) felt like they were in a real magical world — they especially loved the magic spells!
Stuart Lynch (verified owner) –
Used this on a rainy weekend afternoon to keep the kids entertained. They were little wizards for the afternoon, racing round the back yard solving clue after clue with wands. 8 of them followed the trail for about 50 minutes. The clues were pitched just right and never frustrated them. The wording on one or two clues was a little advanced, hence four stars, but nothing a quick hint didn’t fix.

Ran this at my son’s 10th birthday and the children loved it. Armed with wands, the little wizards worked their way around the house to the final reward. 8 children took part and they were absorbed for about 55 minutes. Being an instant download, I had it printed the same evening I ordered. I docked a star only because we needed a touch more space than expected, but it worked well in the end. Couldn’t recommend it more to other parents.

We threw a magic party for my son’s 12th and this was the centrepiece. We kitted everyone out with wands and off they went round the back yard as little wizards. All 9 children were captivated for the best part of an hour. I loved the mystical feel of the clues. One clue was slightly ambiguous and needed a small hint, otherwise it would have been five stars. A brilliant bit of fun that I’d recommend without hesitation.

Ran this for the kids during the school holidays. We kitted everyone out with wands and off they went through the garden as little wizards. 9 children took part and they were absorbed for around 60 minutes. Would happily buy from here again.

Set this up as a half-term treat and it was a lifesaver. They were little wizards for the afternoon, racing round the house solving clue after clue with a few ‘potions’. We had 7 kids in total and it kept them busy for about 60 minutes. I loved the spell-casting touches. I’d have liked one or two extra stations, hence four rather than five stars, but the kids didn’t mind a bit. “Best party ever,” according to my son — high praise indeed.

This was the main activity at my son’s 11th magic party. Armed with a few ‘potions’, the little wizards worked their way around the house to the final reward. We had 8 kids in total and it kept them busy for well over an hour. Would happily buy from here again.

We kitted everyone out with wands and off they went round the garden as little wizards. 6 of them followed the trail for about 60 minutes.

Bought this for my daughter’s 12th magic party and it was the highlight of the day. We kitted everyone out with cloaks and off they went through the garden as little wizards. 9 children took part and they were absorbed for around 75 minutes. Four stars as I’d have loved a final twist at the end, though honestly the children were delighted as it was. Couldn’t recommend it more to other parents.
