How it works

First, you need some 'gems' – these can be colorful stones, heavy marbles, or special diving toys that sink in the water.
Before you start diving, it's important to discuss some safety rules. Always dive where an adult is present. Make sure the water is clear and safe, and that all children can swim.
An adult or an older child should distribute the gems in the swimming pool. They should not be too deep so you can reach them safely.
Now it's time to go! On a starting signal, you dive into the water one by one and search for the sparkling gems. Each gem you find is part of the pirate treasure you need to bring ashore.
Once you find a gem, bring it to the shore or poolside. There you can collect your treasure and see who found the most gems.
When all the gems are found or time runs out, the treasure hunt is over. Gather together, count your treasures, and say a hearty pirate 'Ahoy!' until the next adventure!
