Game 1: Rolling round and round
Who will be most skillful at rolling the roller-ball through the animals’
legs?
Game material needed:
all six animals, the roller-ball, a wooden disk per player and the corres-
ponding peg, all 12 cards and the hourglass.
Preparation of the Game
Play in the bottom part of the box.
Put the six animals anywhere inside
the box.
Make sure that there is sufficient
distance between the animals so
that they don’t touch each other.
The animals should also not stand
too close to the edge of the box.
Note: The bottom of the box and the feet of the animals are
connected by magnets so that the animals will stand firm and not
slip around during the game.
Shuffle all the cards and put them face down in a pile. Each player
chooses a peg and fixes it to the edge of the box where the red hot air
balloon is shown. The wooden disk is placed in front of each player so
that they remember their color.
Get the roller-ball and the hourglass ready.
How to Play
Whoever has been to visit a farm on vacation most recently may start. If
you cannot agree, the youngest player starts and places the roller-ball in
any corner of the box.
After that, the other players uncover all twelve cards and place them face
up in a row in the center of the table.
The rolling fun starts …
The players all shout the starting signal together “1, 2, roller-ball” and
the hourglass is turned round.
