What is the most valuable treasure in all the world? Gold? Silver? Diamonds? Or something that can’t be bought?
The Fun Factory is more than a building. It’s where a group of very different kids come together to be themselves, make friends, and have fun. So when their club is threatened with closure, they’ll do whatever it takes to save it.
Armed with a handful of mysterious clues, the Fun Factory kids set off on a treasure hunt that takes them from the desert to the Arctic, the mountains, and a glowing forest. Each adventure brings a new challenge and a new lesson about helping one another.
They may not find the treasure they were expecting, but they discover something far more valuable: friendship, teamwork, and the importance of having someone by your side.
