We appreciate our murder-mystery themed trails may not be suitable for children below 8 years old (as per the Cluedo board game guidance), even though clues are family-friendly and recently we’ve heard via feedback that kids as young as seven have really enjoyed them.
So we thought we’d launch a magical mystery trail aimed at younger kids! The theme for this trail is fantasy / fairy land, with magical folk suspected of taking cookies to a secret place to be eaten later. Your young team have to figure out who took the cookies, what flavour were taken, and where the cookies have been hidden.
Our first kids trail is at Slieve Gullion Forest Park, County Down – the Giant’s Lair Legendary Whodunit Hunt explores a trail where you can test young powers of observation while learning about the legend of Fionn Mac Cumhaill. We think it’s incredible value for a family at only £3.99 for a trail booklet… and definitely something different to do too!
Our kids trails are mini-booklets with around 16-17 clues to solve, so not too many to tire them out or get bored.
