A Treasure Map

My imaginative and scatterbrained son came home with this Treasure Map from school today.  He made it during his free time in the Make-It Take-It center.  He grabbed it out of his backpack excitedly and walked me through it with plenty of hand gestures and pausing to run across the room and jump on the couch no less than 12 times.  Here's how it goes:

You start by going through Swistymooth Mountain.


Then you go around the twisty tree.


"You have to go 18 Thousand Hundred times around the spinning circle of doom."  (No, contrary to popular belief, that is not just an orange circle.  Foolish pirates!)


"Then you climb up and down the circle ghost man.  Which is hard cause he's a ghost and you can't see him."


"Finally you get to the whatever colors you want treasure map.  The brown spot lines are sand.  The orange and red (didn't show up very well) and purple are lava.  Don't walk there.  Then you get the treasure at the brown X, cross the yellow skull, and go to the Rock and Roll house hut.  Party in there with your treasure of guitars." 

Sorry about the writing on the last one.  I was furiously trying to follow along.  It's one of the first times he's brought home pictures with a story.  I'm in Kindergarten mom heaven!
