Put clues to the each location inside red, white, and blue balloons. On the outside of the balloon, once it is inflated, write a simple question about Independence Day on it with a permanent marker or print them out and tape them to the balloon. Then hide them in the locations you generated with Riddle Me.
When the players come to each location, they must read the question first. When they answer it correctly, they may pop the balloon to get the next clue.  The players should be allowed some help or be able to access the internet to look up some of the answers that stump them.

What is the name of the paper that was signed declaring independence?
In what year was the Declaration of Independence signed?
How many colonies united to declare independence?
