Huckle*Buckle*Beanstalk

Inevitably when my sisters and I get together, we talk about this game called Hucklebucklebeanstalk.  I won't lie, most people think I'm crazy when I talk about Hucklebucklebeanstalk, but it was honestly one of my favorite games when I was young.  I remember one of the best hiding things was this strawberry eraser (yes, it smelled like strawberries).  It got me thinking today, it would be nice if I could send my kids off on a scavenger hunt of sorts at school. 

Geocaching would be a great thing to try around school.  Geocaching on its own is pretty neat.  Bascially you use a GPS device (a/k/a my iPhone) to find things...




It seems like doing this at a school would be great-except that my adminstrators would probably not like it so much. Have any of you tried Geocaching with your students?  How did you work it out?  How did you set it up?  I'm curious, because I think I would like to try it...maybe I will.
