Family Pastimes / Snowstorm - A Co-operative Game
Weather alert! A storm front is moving into Little City and it is the players' job to help four families complete their errands (Work, School, Shopping, Play) and then make it safely home before snow and ice make roads impossible to pass. Players use Road Condition, Weather Report, and Winter Service Truck cards to help them plan their maneuvers. Working cooperatively, players determine which family is moved on each turn. Sometimes the storm gets the best of the players and strands a family, just as in real life. This game is a natural for wintertime play and is especially fun when kids are home from school on a "snow day." The game board is 12 inches square.--Wendy Slotboom
