This is how you create real magic for your kids. Josh, a father from Nebraska, decided to assist his son’s new hobby by burying a “treasure chest” in a local park and letting his son find it. Now his son firmly (and correctly) believes that he’s uncovered some legitimate pirate treasure. Earlier in the day Josh left the house to “get coffee” when he buried the riches. A few hours later he returned with the family and his oldest’s new metal detector.

When we spoke with Josh he told us that he has no intention of telling his son that it is anything but real buried treasure. The find was also assisted by a nearby pirate festival that the family had missed the week before. His son had wondered what the pirates were up to in the area (of Nebraska!) and his trove of booty is the perfect answer. The treasure is now hidden away in the son’s room who refuses to consider selling off his bounty because he’ll probably “never find a treasure chest again”.

The nicest thing about this is that the real treasure is the memory the family will have of this exciting discovery.
