ABSTRACT:
An educational game is provided wherein a random path from a start position to a goal position is divided into at least twenty-six spaces and such spaces are labelled with the letters of the alphabet in proper sequence. Playing cards containing numbers are provided and the drawing of a card permits the child to move his marker to a space on the path by advancing the number of spaces indicated on the card drawn. Cards bearing letters are also incorporated to permit the advance or backward movement of the marker to the letter displayed on the card drawn. Thus, the child learns both letters of the alphabet and numbers.
