Take your kid on a colorful outdoor adventure where you'll be exploring together, searching for clues, solving fun puzzles and learning!
About this Event

This one-of-a-kind interactive scavenger hunt is the best way to enjoy some quality family time while turning the boring walk into a learning adventure.

Inspired by popular superhero stories, you and your children will follow clues around the city, discover beautiful hidden places, and solve engaging puzzles to find the Sensi-Stone and save the city.

Each solved puzzle will reveal a fun fact about the 5 human senses (sight, sound, smell, taste, and touch) and you'll learn together why the sky has its blue color, why the bakery smells like fresh cakes, why the birds sing in the morning, and many other fun facts about the world around us.

Can you find the Sensi-Stone and bring back all the senses before it's too late? 🌈 The whole city counts on you!



HOW DOES IT WORK❓
  • You'll be walking to real locations in your city by following clues and instructions (not playing while walking).
  • At each location, you'll solve fun puzzles together to unlock the next chapter (next location).
  • Kids use the screen minimally and meaningfully, just enough to get the next clue or puzzle.
  • If your child can read, they can play mostly on their own.
  • If not, the parent becomes the host and teammate, making it a shared experience.
  • You'll be visiting 12 locations, with a total walking distance of 1.5 miles.



Built with a child therapist to support development

This experience was co-created with a child therapist to:

  • Foster better communication between parents and children
  • Encourage teamwork, critical thinking, and observation
  • Offer screen-light, real-world play that actually benefits development
  • Help kids learn to notice, explore, and imagine again — outside


Ready to solve puzzles, discover new places, and become heroes together?
