In the center of the board is the manger scene, the very essence of Christmas. Don't let this get clouded over by such events as people being mean to one another or you might all lose the game! A big challenge! What pleases us is that youngsters enjoy the game all year round. Includes: 12 x 12" board, movers, die, and Merry Christmas Puzzles.Our customers say: "Captures the feel of old-time Christmas story telling." - New York, NYPlay as friends, not as enemies! Family Pastimes games foster the spirit of cooperation. Players help each other climb a mountain, make a community, complete a space exploration... They never play against each other. After all, the initial impulse to play a game is social; that is, we bring out a game because we want to do something together. How ironic then that in most games, we spend all our efforts trying to bankrupt someone, destroy their armies - in other words, to get rid of one another!At Family Pastimes we believe that people of different ages and abilities should be able to play side by side, each making their best contribution. We are all there together when we finish the game to take joy in our successes and wonder how we might work together even better the next time we play. Thus, Family Pastimes games will prove to be a friendly form of fun. Socialization, entertainment, academic learning, character growth, etc. - whatever your objectives, we invite you to realize them by cooperative means. We hope you enjoy playing and learning together!
