Description
Bowl over the competition in this game that pits Viking against Viking! Each player has a token and barrel that corresponds to their color. The barrels are placed in the middle of the board in any configuration desired, and players take turns swatting a large ball to try to knock them over. Each barrel that is hit means the corresponding color player has their token moved along a deck. Every space on the deck either rewards a player with a number of coins or allows them to steal from another player. If the bowling player hits multiple barrels, they decide which order to move the tokens in. They don't always want to hit their own barrel or move first, because a player's token can be moved too far, dumping them off the deck into the water! When a player's token falls off the deck, this triggers the other players to collect their rewards - but whoever fell in the water must swim back to the beginning and does not receive anything! As players accrue coins, they place them in their Viking ship. When the treasure stash is gone, the game ends and the player with the biggest haul wins! Easy rules, a hint of strategy, and physical action make this an exciting game for kids. For 2-4 players with a game time of about 20 minutes. Game includes board, 8 scoring flags, 4 player tokens, 1 Viking-shaped bowling bat, 4 Viking ships, 1 bowling ball, 24 coins, 4 barrels, and instructions for play. ~ Janine

Worth its weight in gold
This little booklet is worth its weight in gold! And you could EASILY spend its weight in gold on other homeschooling how-to books, without ever coming CLOSE to the value you get in this booklet!!! The centers outlined in this book can be a full curriculum for the relaxed homeschooler, or enjoyable enrichment for any style of homeschooling. She has suggestions for starting slow and easy with just one or two learning centers, and suggestions for organizing all your books, supplies, and curriculum into centers if you are ready to go whole-hog! Mary Hood is one of the most uplifting and confidence-building homeschooling authors around, and this book is like a shot in the arm or a breath of fresh air for the stressed out mom or dad who is weary of making lesson plans. If I could put one "how-to" book in the hands of new homeschoolers everywhere, it would be THIS little gem. I cannot recommend it highly enough. You will not regret the purchase!
