When Jason Robinson’s daughter Emma found a mysterious door on the ceiling of her parent’s closet, she was on a mission to find where it led.

“She kept asking about it nonstop, so I promised we’d get a ladder sometime and see what’s up there,” Robinson said.

Emma’s dad decided to make a scavenger hunt out of the 3-year-old's curiosity, documenting the whole experience on a now-viral Twitter thread.

The internet played along as Robinson hid a map and a locked box of treasure behind the door.

The map detailed familiar spots in the neighborhood to help Emma along her way.

X marked the spot -- and the key was found!

“She was so excited when she found it, she ran back inside to open her treasure,” Robinson said.

And the treasure did not disappoint.

Robinson’s daughter was so proud of her find, she could hardly part ways with the new jewels.

“Emma got out of bed the next morning and put the necklace on first thing, along with her princess dress,” Robinson said. “She had so much fun and it was a great way to spend the day socially distant at home.”
