Click on the link above or the picture below to to open up the game materials (you can print it from the web, or save and print it from a pdf viewer - if you need a program to open and print it, ask your parents if you can download Adobe Reader for free). You will need a pair of scissors, a dice or spinner, and playing pieces to make and play this game.
How to Play:
- Print all four pages and cut out each of the game cards. You can tape the two board game halves together if you want.
- Find a game piece to move along the trail (a small rock or penny works great). Use dice or a spinner to move your game piece along the trail.
- If you land on a dart point along the trail you must draw a card and follow the instructions. If the card says to go to a place such as the river or the hut, you must go to the space on the trail that is nearest to that location.
- The winner must roll the exact number to get on the final dart point at the Finish.
Happy Trails!
