Description
The Grouchy Ladybug Game, by University Games, brings the Eric Carle book alive with a whale of a game board complete with a moving whale tail. Children move their ladybugs through the game, practicing manners, meeting animal friends and gathering a nice meal!
Each player starts with a grouchy, hungry ladybug and an empty leaf. Players move around the board finding food for their hungry ladybugs.
In this game, it takes a polite "please" to move ahead and feed a ladybug. When players land on a ladybug space, they choose an animal card and explore the relative size of various animals.
Contents include a giant game board with moving whale tail, 4 ladybug game pieces, 12 animal cards, 50 aphid (bug) tokens, spinner & instructions.
Winner of Creative Child Magazine 2005 Preffered Choice Award. Lots of fun play for 2 to 4 players.
