Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star

A simple race game has players roll and move toward spaces that let them hang stars over their house. Owl spaces force stars onto another house, and completing the star display opens the final chance to hang the moon.

Read the full game description

An affectionately arranged goodnight game for 2-4 children Ages 3 ½ - 7. There isn't a lot to this game. Roll the die and then move to the indicated color (or lose your turn if you roll the "sad moon"). If your move causes you to land on or pass over the blue Star space, then you get to hang a star over your house. If you land on the Owl space, you must give a star to another player to hang. When one player has placed four stars over his or her house, then all he needs to do is hang the moon to win the game. When the game is done, hang the rest of the stars, turn out the lights, and enjoy the glow-in-the-dark panorama. A good first game for very young children, and a great "going-to-sleep" game for the end of a long day.
