PLAYED FOR YOU

Move & Twist

Movement and Balance

The little lady bugs want to climb as high as possible, they want to crawl along the flower stems up the flower. Players need to assist them with flying and crawling exercises and lay out a flower made up from stem parts and flower, using cards won with mastered tasks. At the start of the game players decide on the number of stem parts needed for a flower. Stem and flower cards are stacked task side down, the lady bugs are laid out and you play in turn in clockwise direction. You draw a task card, first from the stem stack, and at the end from the flower stack, and execute the task:

All exercises are done using the wooden lady bugs; you must stack bugs, snip bugs, balance bugs on fingers, shoulders, elbows and other body parts while moving in the way the card demands; you must throw and catch buts, or guess in which fist a bug is hidden. There are also jokers hidden in the stacks, for a clover leaf you get a card for free, for a lady bug in the rain you lose a turn. For some exercises you have more than one try. When you master the exercise you take the card and lay it out for your flower. When you are unlucky and can’t manage the exercise the card is put at the bottom of the stack. The rules list exercises that might be too difficult for Five Year Olds, you can remove them from the game. If you are first to complete a flower from stem parts and flower you win.

Move & Twist - Movement, movement, movement, and dexterity, all this with cute lady bugs and a cute background story, and also a game where adults or older children can join in – make 10 circles with your arms, but with lady bugs on both backs of your hands.
