Description

A simple children's "racetrack" style game where the goal is to be the first to reach the finish. The path portrays various sports and gymnastic exercises (such as a vaulting horse, wrestling, pole vaulting). After meandering through the center of the board, the game path finishes on a running track that circles the entire playing board. The pawns are moved according to spinners marked 1-6. The playing board is printed inside the box bottom.
