This sweeps is geared towards kids and actually requires you have a family member in your household between the ages of 5 and 15. You also need entry codes to enter online that you can find on specially-marked boxes of Post Cereals. Fortunately, while having a kid is mandatory to enter, a purchase is not. You can also mail in an entry if you'd like. Read on for details.

- Ground transportation
- $2,900 spending cash
- An opportunity to participate in a scavenger hunt between all grand-prize winning families to win up to $1,500 cash
200 first prize winners will each receive a 39 Clues backpack and autographed copies of books 1-7 in The 39 Clues series.
