  • Description

    An adventure game designed to encourage thought and imagination in young children! On our journey to Granny's we go through the dark woods, cross a stream, need to be very careful passing a sleepy bear and more. We decide what to bring along: maybe our dog will help us, maybe we should bring a basket of food, or perhaps some sticks and a rope. Players will have to use these items to invent ways to deal with whatever obstacle they meet. Includes: 12 x 12" board, team mover, die, good things tokens.

    Play as friends, not as enemies! Family Pastimes games foster the spirit of cooperation. Players help each other climb a mountain, make a community, complete a space exploration... They never play against each other. After all, the initial impulse to play a game is social; that is, we bring out a game because we want to do something together. How ironic then that in most games, we spend all our efforts trying to bankrupt someone, destroy their armies - in other words, to get rid of one another!

    At Family Pastimes we believe that people of different ages and abilities should be able to play side by side, each making their best contribution. We are all there together when we finish the game to take joy in our successes and wonder how we might work together even better the next time we play. Thus, Family Pastimes games will prove to be a friendly form of fun. Socialization, entertainment, academic learning, character growth, etc. - whatever your objectives, we invite you to realize them by cooperative means. We hope you enjoy playing and learning together!
