hi
today we are going to make a treasure map we're going to have buried treasure and we're going to put a map so that we can find it later
all you're going to need is a paper bag
you can use any kind of paper bag so here's our treasure map and i've wrapped it up so it's nice and tight i'm going to unwrap it and i have the trigger mask so what we're going to do first is take our paper bag and rip along the fold so see i'm just dripping along the fold lots of noise ripping ripping ripping we want to make it look old see the tattered edges we want to make it look like we found a really old treasure map it takes a little bit of courage to go uh on an adventure so we're going to talk about vincent van gogh said what would life be like if we had no courage to attempt anything i don't know takes courage to go on an adventure so let's let's make an adventure in our imagination you're going to need your crayons or a pencil and here's our map now i've drawn out all kinds of things the first thing you want to do is draw where the treasure is buried there we are here's the treasure i put in red x marks the spot so it's nice and bright the next thing is we've got this island so go ahead and make an island sometimes the island waves in and out it's not a perfect circle it's not a square it just kind of morphs around there we go now if that's the x we have to find a path to get to the treasure okay so here is our little sailing ship okay there's the sails and we're in the big ocean we come over to the shoreline there's the shore i'm going to put some shore over on this side and then we have a path we have to find where how to get to the treasure now i know right here are some gum drop mountains so i'm going to put those in and right here is uh gator cliff there we go probably because it looks a little bit late like a gator and so we know that if we land here we can't go over the mountains to get the treasure and we can't go over the cliff to get the treasure so we have to go that direction which direction is that that direction is north so let's make a little symbol for north up there okay now if north goes up south goes down all right and then if north and south are there east is on this side and west is on this side and so what this is called is a compass rose and this is kind of how the sailors would travel around the world in the ocean okay so let's put our path together we're walking down the path and we get to a river so let's color in that river we have to cross the river that river's name is tricky river and then we get up to the stinky swamp it's really really stinky so let's give it some stinky smells and you know what else i'm going to do i'm going to put flies there because flies are attracted to really smelly things so there's some flies swimming around they're flying around and then guess what there's a volcano here we have to go around the volcano you can't go through a volcano put the lava in there maybe some lavas coming down okay so we're still on our path and then we're going to come over to these furry rocks i mean i've never heard of four-way rocks but if you were to see them you know it's a landmark and you're right on the right path to your adventure to the where the treasure is and then we keep coming along oh there's a bear a little black bear and it turns out my dad told me the bears the black bears are mostly vegetarian they eat nuts and berries and sometimes bugs so there's the uh the shore line and that's um the black bear beach so the bear lives there okay so let's come around the corner and look there's bunches bunches of trees so that must be a forest so we'll go ahead and draw our little forest in there and then as we come along here it is we found the treasure so do you have a shovel can you dig up that treasure and find what it is okay sounds great up here in the outside ocean you could put fish in the ocean you could put a mermaid you could put some crab decorate the whole thing and have fun have fun today use your imagination and have an adventure all right have a great day
