HOW TO PLAY

This is a simple game for 2-4 players (or teams), played on the board with picture and word clues, and some special squares (e.g. Go ahead two spaces).

Decide who starts and who comes next.
Take a turn by flipping a coin (heads = move 1 space; tails = move 2 spaces).
When you land on a square with an animal, you have to say the proper name, then greet the animal. For example, you greet the Lion: Hello, Lion. How are you?
If your answer is correct, don't move.
If your answer is wrong, move back one space.
The winner is the first player to reach the finish.
