ABSTRACT:
This new board game will give children the opportunity to study facts and figures about dinosaurs. In order to play this game, children must answer questions about dinosaurs, pronounce dinosaur names, spell and define dinosaur words accurately in order to gain bonus points, which are called Energy Bars. Energy bars help keep the children out of the tarpit. One square requests that a player draw a dinosaur. Instructions for drawing dinosaurs are part of the game. Another square sends a child to China to be in charge of a dig--which causes the player to lose a turn because of travel time and responsibilities. Another square makes a child become the curator of Amy's Museum of Killer Death Lizards--which, again, causes the player to lose a turn because of meetings and responsibilities. The player that goes around the board seven times, which then gives the player 14 chances to answer questions, define and spell words, pronounce names, and draw a dinosaur, becomes the winner. If there is a tie, the child with the most energy bars is declared the winner. If there is still a tie, the child with the best-drawn dinosaur wins.
