ABSTRACT:
A game, primarily designed for preschool children, which includes a game board having a plurality of apertures located in the game board. Selected ones of the apertures have a first type of upstanding peg located within the aperture and the others of the apertures have a second type of upstanding peg within the aperture; the first pegs are longer, but the pegs and apertures are arranged to disguise the difference between the longer and shorter pegs. A card, or similar substrate, with questions on the top thereof can be disposed over the game board and this card or substrate will have a plurality of apertures therein capable of being aligned with certain of the apertures in the game board to provide multiple choice answers. A probe, or stylus, may be inserted in the apertures of the card and into the apertures of the game board. In the event that the player of the game inserts the stylus or probe into an aperture of the game board having the longer peg, the player will have selected an aperture corresponding to a correct answer. This peg of the first type is located to be inserted into the stylus to actuate a display member on the stylus such that the player of the game will recognize the selection of a proper answer in the multiple choice possibilities. In this way, visual and mechanical means are provided on the stylus or probe to indicate the correct answer. Moreover, the playing board is designed and the cards are designed with respect to the playing board so that a number of different cards with different questions and possibilities of answers are located at different positions on the cards.
