Kids who love hide-and-seek are drawn to anticipation, discovery, and the excitement of not knowing exactly where something will appear. A Christmas gift that includes those elements can turn a familiar game into a seasonal tradition.
Add a story to the search
A hide-and-find activity becomes more memorable when there is a reason behind it. Use clues, a Christmas character, or a family story to give the search a beginning and an ending.
The Tomte Cake Set includes a hide-and-find tradition alongside the story, baking, and decorating experience.

Let kids become the hiders
After children understand the activity, let them design the next search for siblings, parents, or grandparents. Creating clues can be as much fun as solving them.
Change the hiding place every year
A repeatable search creates anticipation without requiring an entirely new tradition each Christmas.
