Yes, I can help Lil’ Tut escape the pyramid — and also explain the solution step-by-step.

## 🧩 The Problem:
You’re given a
pyramid-shaped maze with a small mummy (Lil’ Tut) inside. Your goal is to find the correct path from Lil’ Tut’s position to the
exit at the top of the pyramid. But there’s a twist: you must follow the
correct sequence of steps for mummification, as listed in the box on the left.
This means:
>
You can only move through the maze by following the numbered steps of mummification in order — 1 → 2 → 3 → 4 → 5 → 6 → 7.
Each time you pass through a numbered “step” in the maze, you must be following the correct chronological order of mummification.

## 📜 Step-by-Step Mummification Process (Given):
1. The body was washed and dried.
2. Belly organs were removed.
3. The body was filled with salt.
4. The body was soaked in natron salts to dry it out.
5. After 40 days, the filling was removed and replaced.
6. The body was wrapped in linen strips.
7. The body was insulated and placed in a sarcophagus.
*(Note: This is a simplified version for kids — historically, organs were preserved separately in canopic jars, and natron was used for drying.)*

## 🔍 How to Solve the Maze:
You must trace a path from Lil’ Tut (inside the pyramid) to the exit (top of the pyramid), passing through
each numbered step in order: 1 → 2 → 3 → 4 → 5 → 6 → 7.
The maze has
small circles or nodes labeled with numbers 1 through 7 scattered throughout. You must visit them
in order.

✔ Solution Path (Step-by-Step):
Let’s trace the correct route:
1.
Start at Lil’ Tut (near the bottom center).
2. Move
up-left to find
Step 1 (body washed and dried).
3. From Step 1, go
down-right slightly, then
up-right to reach
Step 2 (organs removed).
4. From Step 2, head
left and up to
Step 3 (filled with salt).
5. From Step 3, go
down-right, then
up-left to
Step 4 (soaked in natron).
6. From Step 4, move
right and up to
Step 5 (filling replaced after 40 days).
7. From Step 5, go
left-up to
Step 6 (wrapped in linen).
8. From Step 6, go
up-right to
Step 7 (placed in sarcophagus).
9. From Step 7, take the
final path straight up to the
exit at the top of the pyramid!

## 🎯 Final Answer:
✔ Lil’ Tut escapes by following the mummification steps in order: 1 → 2 → 3 → 4 → 5 → 6 → 7 — leading him to the top exit.

## 💡 Why This Works:
This isn’t just a random maze — it’s a
logic puzzle disguised as a maze. You can’t just find any path to the top; you must follow the
historical/educational sequence of mummification. This teaches kids both problem-solving and ancient Egyptian culture.

## 🖍️ Bonus Tip (for drawing the path):
If you want to draw the solution on the image, use a colored pencil or marker to trace this route:
- Start at Lil’ Tut
- Connect dots 1–7 in order
- End at the pyramid peak
