HERE'S A JOLLY GAME TO PLAY!
Here's a game for those firelight hours. All you have to do is to get a dice, out out the circle, and counters, which you see here, and paste them on to stiff card. Rules:— If counter falls on lines or spots, go forward one space. If counter falls on blacks or checks, lose a turn.
If it falls on the same colour as counter, go back to beginning. If counter falls on any of the children, move on two spaces. If it falls on any of the cliililrcn in the inner spaces, go back two spaces. If you reach 48 you cannot ge home unless 1 is thrown. Four children can play at tlife game, but if you can make some more pretty counter®, more can
join in. Each player throws the dice, and the first one to get 6 begins the game. This player moves his or her counter on space 1 and throws the dice, then moves hie or her counter along to which ever number comes tip on the dice. And so the game carries on. Peter Pan hopes you will spend many enjoyable hours with it.
