Grandpa and the birthday present hunt

When Kayleigh was 12, Grandpa decided that she was old enough to do a little extra to get her birthday present, and so he devised a birthday present hunt using cryptic clues that led Kayleigh from our house all around Theodore. Grandpa set the clues up and placed them all in their places before coming to our house and giving Kayleigh her present - which only consisted of an envelope with the first clue. The clues had her running all over the place, from the little park near our house, down to the school, the oval , the park past the oval and other places until leading them back to our house. Grandpa had given me the keys to the car and had me hide the present under her pillow ready for her to find. Kayleigh thought that this was completely AWESOME and begged and begged Grandpa to do it again for her next birthday. Grandpa liked making her 'work' for her present and they had a lot of fun trying to figure out each clue and running to find the next one. Kayleigh really really really really enjoyed this method of getting presents as she has so much fun doing it - it was almost better than the present itself. (By the way the present she got that year was a butterfly pendant for her necklace that she wore to her year 6 graduation - I have have been wearing it for the last 6 months)
