This part of the play set/play mat whisks us into the world of the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull: you'll be able to play out different scenes from the film (the tent, quicksand and river scenes...). You also have additional features like the temple entrance, totem style, and graveyard traps.... I can hear my teeth chattering already....

How to make the temple/cave entrance
The entrance is marked by a totem-style arch, made from fimo clay.
Take a little ball of marbled effect Fimo clay and push it onto a wooden toothpick. Follow that with an irregularly-shaped chunk of clay, for a stone-like effect. Alternate the marbled clay and the chunks of clay (leave about a third of an inch of the toothpick free).
The 2 toothpicks are topped with balls of clay formed into scary gargoyle type shapes. The third toothpick is stuck into the other two toothpicks so as to form a kind of square arch.
To bake the fimo clay, you'll need about twenty minutes in an oven at 266°F. Fimo clay may be worked by children aged 8 and up. Wash your hands well once you've finished working with the clay.
When the clay has cooled, the arch may be set up in front of the cave.

Trap with skeleton
With a teaspoon, make a hole in the foam surface of the play set, paint it, and place a LEGO skeleton into the hole.
Matches pushed into the ground create a sort of cage.
The cage is hidden amongst the bushes...
In another area, a covered pit, without a skeleton this time round, threatens the unwary explorer....
