Your Mission
Run a small design studio that turns an ordinary approved snack into a thoughtful menu and service experience.
What You'll Need
- Paper or index cards
- Markers or colored pencils
- A tray or basket
- An adult-approved snack or drink
How to Do the Quest
- 1
Choose a tabletop workspace and agree that an adult handles any food preparation, hot drinks, and kitchen cleanup.
- 2
Invent a hotel name and list three realistic snack or drink options that are already available and approved.
- 3
Design a menu with item names, simple symbols, and clear prices made from pretend points rather than real money.
- 4
Make an order card and assign optional roles such as designer, caller, tray checker, or seated guest.
- 5
Place one approved order, assemble it safely with adult help if needed, and carry the tray only along a clear route.
- 6
Review the menu together by circling one choice that was easy to understand and one detail to improve next time.
Quest Challenge
Can the team make a menu that someone else can use successfully without asking a follow-up question?
Pro Tip
The best menus are easy to scan; use large headings, short descriptions, and one clear symbol for each item.
Safety First
An adult should approve and handle any food, heat, sharp tools, allergens, and carrying route; use a stable tray and avoid stairs or crowded paths.
