This cache is NOT hidden at the posted coordinates. DO NOT LOOK THERE! You will need to solve one of the puzzles below to find the cache.
"Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me."
It may not hurt physically, but it can get really frustrating to face a puzzle cache that you cannot solve. And that must be especially true for young people, like my six-year-old grandson, Roo, who enjoy geocaching but find the adult-focused puzzles and some hides especially frustrating.
This puzzle cache is one of what is intended as a series aimed at providing an opportunity for even the younger active geocachers to enjoy solving and finding a puzzle cache.
Three alternative puzzles are provided. Each will lead to the same coordinates. The puzzles are separated by appropriate graphics with no relevance to the puzzles.
The first, and most challenging, should take at least a little thought by even adult geocachers. If the first one is too difficult, try the second. If that is still too difficult, find the coordinates by solving the third, easiest puzzle. Mentors will have to decide which puzzle level is appropriate for their young geocacher(s).
Yes, I know that someone with the skills to solve one of the more challenging puzzles could just jump to the easy one, but why would you want to do that other than numbers? When logging your find, please note which puzzle you or your young geocacher solved . . . without, of course, giving away the answer.
NOTE: Cache is NOT magnetic, nor is it hung on a metallic item!
