Instructions for Treasure Map:

Avast ye, scallywags. Time to plunder on this Baptism Preparation Treasure Hunt. Join us and yer fellow pirates for an adventure as ye embark on the path to find the treasure.

This will take thirteen months to complete so start a month before your child’s seventh birthday. As your child completes each week’s assignment he/she can add a sticker to each dotted line (there are four dotted lines between each number to represent each week). After your child completes each month’s assignments reward him/her with a small prize (dollar store prizes). Each month he/she will also memorize an Article of Faith. Once he/she has completed the Article of Faith packet, memorized the Article of Faith and says it out loud without looking, let him/her take a candy from the candy jar or prize box.

When your child has completed all thirteen numbers, present a treasure box (gift box, shoe box, etc). Items in the treasure box may include a white towel, journal, pen, Baptism book, new tie, white handkerchief, white pillowcase, set of scriptures or a white bracelet.

Your child is now ready and prepared to enter the waters of Baptism which is a wonderful treasure he/she will receive.

Each Article of Faith includes the following:

Repeat the Article of Faith out loud (without looking) and return completed packet to parents on Friday for a prize (candy jar or small dollar store prize).
