how to play

This is a board game with cards for 2-4 players (or teams).


  • Shuffle task cards and put in a pile face up (answer side down).
  • Take a turn by flipping a coin (heads = move 1 space; tails = move 2 spaces).
  • When you land on a square with the flower, you take a task card from the top of the pile, then you have to follow the instruction or solve the puzzle on it. For example, Name three things that are white. Snow, snowball, snowflake.
  • If you are right, don't move.
  • If you are wrong, move back one space.
  • The winner is the first player to reach the finish.
