Are you guys ready for 11 00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:41,839 Speaker 1: today's story too, Let's go. As Theo ran through his 12 00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:46,239 Speaker 1: house to grab his boots, rain jacket, and umbrella. He 13 00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:49,960 Speaker 1: was so excited to see if this was a real 14 00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 1: treasure map. Remember in the last episode, THEO found this 15 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:58,240 Speaker 1: old legendary map hidden in the back of his closet 16 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:02,240 Speaker 1: and had some markings on it that looked familiar, look 17 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 1: kind of like the three big stones that were at 18 00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:07,040 Speaker 1: a playground near his house, and THEO was going to 19 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:10,319 Speaker 1: check it out to see if this was indeed a 20 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 1: real treasure map. He put the map inside of a 21 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:18,640 Speaker 1: plastic bag to keep it dry from the rain. It 22 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:21,080 Speaker 1: had been raining now for a long time, and so 23 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:25,760 Speaker 1: all the mud and puddles had appeared. By now. He 24 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 1: had to keep that map dry or else he might 25 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:33,120 Speaker 1: lose some really important information. All right, THEO, be careful 26 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 1: out there and try not to get too wet, said 27 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 1: his parents as he walked outside. Okay, I'll be back 28 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 1: in a little bit. He waved goodbye and started on 29 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 1: his adventure towards the playground. Squish, squash, squish, squash. His 30 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 1: boots squashed through the mud with every step. Oh that 31 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 1: was a deep puddle. Wow, I'm glad I'm wearing some 32 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: tall boots, said the You. Just a little bit further 33 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 1: up ahead, he could see the park where he was 34 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:08,920 Speaker 1: playing with his friends earlier. Now the wood chips had 35 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:11,920 Speaker 1: formed a whole bunch of different puddles from all the rain, 36 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 1: so it was not going to be a good time 37 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 1: to play. And of course he was on a mission, 38 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:22,680 Speaker 1: so he had to stay focused. All right, Um, where's 39 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 1: that big pile of those big rocks? Oh it's over there, Yeah, 40 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 1: let me go check it out. Over there. THEO was 41 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:32,920 Speaker 1: looking to find the landmarks that he had seen on 42 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 1: the treasure map. You see, every treasure map, it leaves 43 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:40,639 Speaker 1: behind drawings of of different places that can help you remember, 44 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,920 Speaker 1: like how to get to where the treasure is. So 45 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 1: on the map they had seen three schoo wiggly circles 46 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 1: that kind of looked like three boulders. THEO had remembered 47 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: seeing some boulders in the park. As he got closer 48 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:59,800 Speaker 1: and closer, he counted one, two, three boulders. This is 49 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 1: how to be it. As he pulled out the map 50 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 1: that was inside of that plastic bag from inside of 51 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 1: his ring jacket, he held it up and it matched 52 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: perfectly with those three boulders that were on the edge 53 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:15,200 Speaker 1: of the playground. You see, these boulders were pretty big. 54 00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 1: They were a little bit bigger than THEO, but you 55 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 1: could like get on top and climb on them. Right now, 56 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,920 Speaker 1: they were pretty slippery from all that rain. Okay, I 57 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: think I just got to climb up there and take 58 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 1: a better look and see if I can find the 59 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 1: next clue on the map. By looking at the map, 60 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 1: it looked like the next thing he needed to find 61 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 1: was some kind of tree that looked like the letter Y. 62 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 1: He'd never seen a Y tree before, but maybe if 63 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 1: he climbed up on the rocks he could get a 64 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 1: better look there. Ah. Who, that was really slippery. As 65 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 1: he looked around, he turned in circles looking for that 66 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 1: Why a tree? M hmm, there's a lot of trees. 67 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 1: I don't see one that looks Wait a second. Over there, 68 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 1: there's a ginormous old oak tree. It does kind of 69 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 1: look like the letter why. I wonder if that's it. 70 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 1: He turned to jump off the rocks to get back 71 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 1: on the ground and head towards the tree, and all 72 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:28,159 Speaker 1: of a sudden, what's blash ah? THEO slipped off of 73 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 1: the big boulders and right into a huge mud puddle. 74 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 1: Oh no the map. The map had flown out of 75 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: Theo's hands and landed right in the mud. Oh no, 76 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: is it ruined? Said THEO as he nervously picked it 77 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:48,839 Speaker 1: up out of the mud. Oh good, that plastic bag 78 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,600 Speaker 1: kept it dry and clean. I just gotta wipe off 79 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 1: all this mud from that plastic bag. He wiped off 80 00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 1: the mud on his right pant leg. There good as new, well, almost, 81 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 1: said THEO as he began his next adventure to the 82 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:12,239 Speaker 1: tree that looks like Oh why wouldn't it be so 83 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: fun to follow a real treasure map? Said? Venture that 84 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 1: leads you from clue to clue to clue and then baby, 85 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,599 Speaker 1: there's a real treasure waiting for you, just s up ahead. 86 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 1: As THEO arrived at the tree, he heard in the distance, THEO, THEO, 87 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 1: where are you? That was the voice of his parents 88 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 1: shouting from a distance. Looks like they didn't want to 89 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,479 Speaker 1: miss out on all the fun that THEO was having. 90 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 1: I'm over here, shouted THEO as he waved his arms 91 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:50,720 Speaker 1: up really high so that they could see him. How's 92 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:55,119 Speaker 1: it going, THEO? Any uh? Any more clues? And wow, 93 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:59,280 Speaker 1: you got pretty muddy? Are you okay? They asked? Yeah, 94 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:02,279 Speaker 1: I'm okay. I kind of slipped off those big boulders 95 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:04,480 Speaker 1: and the map fell in the mud. But thankfully it's 96 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 1: in this plastic bags. I just had to wipe it 97 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:10,240 Speaker 1: off on my leg, said THEO. But I'm at the 98 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 1: next clue. It it pointed me over to this tree 99 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 1: that looked like a y See. He held up the map, 100 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,480 Speaker 1: and his parents agreed that that tree looked exactly like 101 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 1: the one that was drawn on this old treasure map. 102 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:28,599 Speaker 1: All right, so what do we do next? They asked? Um, 103 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 1: I don't know. This map doesn't have a big X 104 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 1: on it. Um, I don't exactly know what we're looking for, 105 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:38,160 Speaker 1: But this big tree does seem to be in the 106 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,800 Speaker 1: center of the map, so it must be important. Let's 107 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:44,720 Speaker 1: look around, said THEO. The three of them started to 108 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:47,480 Speaker 1: walk around the tree and look in all the nooks 109 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 1: and crannies. Because it was a very big old tree, 110 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 1: it had some hollow parts and some old broken branches 111 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,359 Speaker 1: that had a hole inside, and so they were looking 112 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 1: for something that might be hidden inside of that old 113 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:06,280 Speaker 1: old tree. Wait a second, THEO, come over here. Look 114 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: down here, one of his parents was pointing down to 115 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 1: an old hollow part of the tree. Do you know 116 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 1: what a hollow part of the tree is. Yeah, it's 117 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 1: kind of like the center of the tree is empty 118 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 1: and there's a little opening to it, and sometimes critters 119 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 1: like to build a nest inside there. But this one 120 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 1: had something else inside here. Let me reach inside and 121 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: pull it out. THEO laid down on the wet grass 122 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 1: and reached inside. Be careful, said his parents. I got 123 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 1: it and out popped a very old wooden box. Is 124 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 1: this a treasure chest? Shout at THEO. That's what it 125 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 1: looks like. Get it open fast, shouted his parents. I 126 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 1: think they were just as excited as THEO was. Thankfully 127 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: there wasn't a lock on it. As THEO opened it up, 128 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:09,000 Speaker 1: it was empty. What it's completely empty, shouted THEO. As 129 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:13,679 Speaker 1: he closed the box. A man said one of his parents, 130 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 1: I kind of wish that there was like a gold 131 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 1: coin in there or something. Let me take another look. 132 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 1: One of his parents knelt down and picked up the 133 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 1: box and opened it up. Wait a second, there is 134 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 1: a gold coin. Look. He reached inside and pulled out 135 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:34,439 Speaker 1: a gold coin. How did that happen? I just looked 136 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 1: in there, said THEO, and it was empty. They all 137 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,080 Speaker 1: looked at each other and couldn't believe it. But it 138 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 1: was a real gold coin. You don't think it's because 139 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:47,520 Speaker 1: you said that you wish that there was a gold 140 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 1: coin in there, do you? Asked THEO. I don't know, 141 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 1: but let's try it again. I wish there was cotton 142 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 1: candy inside, said one of his parents. As they opened 143 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 1: the box. They couldn't believe it. A beautiful, bright, pink 144 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 1: spool of cotton candy. All three of their mouths dropped open. 145 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 1: No way, said THEO. It's a wishing box. The three 146 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:19,560 Speaker 1: of them couldn't wait to get home and try some 147 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:24,959 Speaker 1: more wishes. But holy smokes, they found a real wishing box. 148 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 1: I've never seen one of those in real life. But 149 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,560 Speaker 1: if you had a wishing box, what would you wish 150 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 1: for inside that you could open up and find sitting 151 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 1: there waiting for you. Oh, that would be so cool. 152 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 1: Even though this is the end of the story, it's 153 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 1: the only just the beginning of THEO and his parents 154 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:49,200 Speaker 1: great adventure with this new treasure that they just found. 155 00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:58,839 Speaker 1: Great job you listen to all the way to the end, 156 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,200 Speaker 1: and you know what tem an is.
