Oscar walked around for two days after this one, insisting he was "Crew Member Seven of the Starwanderers." I'll take that as a win.

There's something about space that grabs kids like nothing else — all that mystery and possibility. This treasure hunt sends them on a proper mission: the planets of our solar system have gone missing, and only the Starwanderer crew can find them, solve the riddles, and bring them back home.

They're joined by a clever little character called Kiki, a star hamster who's been watching from the cosmos. Together, the kids follow their treasure map from Mercury all the way to Neptune, learning about each planet as they go while solving puzzles and tackling challenges at every station. It's the kind of adventure that teaches you stuff without it feeling like a lesson.

📦 What you get in the PDF

  • A full parent guide with clear, step-by-step instructions for setup
  • Invitation cards that set the scene (you're being recruited for the Starwanderer mission)
  • A beautiful planetary treasure map for colouring in as you discover each planet
  • Eight station cards with planet-themed riddles, clues, and activities — scaled for younger explorers (4–6 years, simpler tasks, shorter stories) and older ones (6–9 years, trickier puzzles, more detail)
  • Four bonus challenge tasks if you want to extend the adventure
  • Astronaut certificates for everyone at the finish
  • Creative ideas and decoration tips
  • Solutions guide for all the puzzles
🎯

Best for: ages 4–9, indoors or outdoors (this one works brilliantly in a garden, park, or even a living room), 4–10 kids, about 60–120 minutes depending on how many stations you set up and how long the kids linger asking about Saturn's rings.
Hannah’s honest tip: print the planet stickers and let the kids stick them onto the map as they go — gives them a visual sense of progress and keeps the little ones focused. If you've got space, set up a "mission control" zone in the middle where the kids return between stations; it makes the whole thing feel more structured and gives you a chance to catch your breath.

★★★★★
A highlight at the children's birthday!
We did the astronaut treasure hunt for our son's 5th birthday, and it was an absolute hit! The children were straight into the theme, searched enthusiastically for clues and solved all the puzzles with joy. Easy to put together and a super activity for the party!

★★★★★
Beautiful design & wonderfully thought out!
I'm delighted with how beautifully the treasure hunt is designed – the illustrations are really cute, and the whole concept feels very well thought out. The children were straight into space-adventure mode, puzzling away busily and delighting in each new station. A complete success!
Mandy Verified buyer
★★★★★
Pure delight!! We did the astronaut treasure hunt for our son's 5th birthday and he was completely thrilled. The stations are varied and lovingly designed. We took the version for 4–6 years. We'll definitely try more treasure hunts. Absolutely recommended!
Malia Verified buyer
★★★★★
A space party was my son's (8) biggest wish – and thanks to this treasure hunt it became the perfect party! Played with 9 children, playing time about 85 minutes. Everyone was highly motivated right to the end. The preparation was relaxed thanks to the clear instructions.
