\"fathers-day\"<\/a>One of the nicest things you can do for your Dad on Father\u2019s Day is make him feel appreciated, loved and special.\u00a0\u00a0 What better way to do that than make him a fun scavenger hunt.\u00a0\u00a0 With TextClues it\u2019s easy to set up a great scavenger hunt for him to play by using his cell phone.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When setting up your own personal scavenger hunt think about your Dad\u2019s interests and hobbies and jot down some notes of various questions you might use for the hunt, also decide whether you\u2019ll use small gifts along the way, as he solves some of the clues, or just a special gift at the end of the hunt.\u00a0 For example, you could hide small gifts or notes under the bed, in the garage, in the shed or under the sofa etc. and send him text message clues to solve in order to find his gifts.<\/p>\n

Pick the time you\u2019d like your scavenger hunt to begin, here at TextClues you create your own custom scavenger hunt. \u00a0\u00a0You pick the day and time you\u2019d like your hunt to start and at that time your first text message will be sent to him challenging him to accept his scavenger hunt.\u00a0 Then you can sit back and see how much fun he\u2019ll have.<\/p>\n
