I really don't understand how having the virus on your hands then touching your mouth is unsafe, but having the virus on your sandwich and putting it in your mouth is fine.

One of my favorite movies ever. It looks light and fluffy on the surface but there is so much symbolism and hidden meanings I can watch it over and over to catch something new.

What a happy song, I love it! Thank you to whoever suggested it, this is my first time hearing Ghanaian music.

I've done a little home scavenger hunt like this! I just made up little rhyming clues and hid them throughout the house, the last one had the big present hidden in it. I don't remember what the present was, or even what the clues were, but god we had a blast.
Iirc I had maybe a dozen clues and it ended up taking much longer to solve than I thought...I figured maybe an hour but it was more like two or three. I purposely made some of them hard and some easy, but the finder got the hard ones right away and needed hints on the ones I thought they'd get instantly!
I was so worried they'd stumble across a clue meant for later in the game but fortunately they never came close.
My clues were super cheesy but in the heat of the hunt they became more fun and mysterious. I started with the first clue in a card, something like:
It's a Mother's Day treasure hunt!
This is your first clue --
The next one is hiding
Behind a picture of you!
(Hide clue behind a photo of mom, can be a group photo but try to make the first one super easy)
So you found the first one,
You think you're so smart.
The next one will be waiting
For [her favorite show] to start
(Hide behind/under the tv)
Etc. I also included hints that let them know they're halfway there, almost there, the next one is the last. And some spots had sentimental memories, while others were just random and made a good rhyme.
I could see incorporating some of The Architect's puzzles into it, like one that leads to a book that they have to pick out letters on a certain page to lead to the next spot. Or using Ceasar Cypher for a clue.
Good luck! Even if you only do 5 or 6 clues, I guarantee it will be memorable. You can even space it out with activities at different clues, like one leads to the table for lunch or snack; another requires them to take a dozen silly photos before they can get the next clue (that you hand to them).

How is it a status symbol? Do people put the horns, or pieces of horns, on display in their house? Wear it as jewelery? Make things out of it other than medicine?
