Directions
- Load the plastic test tube with goodies and seal it with the cork.

- Affix the 'specimen No 3' label to the test tube container using double-sided tape.
- Fill the glassine bag and the chevron paper bag with treats and small toys, then fold the tops down and seal with tape.
- Place the smaller bag on top of the larger one and bind them together with black twine.
