Book Synopsis Animal Games by : Gini Scott

Download or read book Animal Games written by Gini Scott. This book was released on 2018-03-03. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These Animal Games were inspired by the Animal Cards that were originally created for the Animal Insights book. This book features a unique way to get insights about yourself and about what you can gain from the qualities of a particular animal. The idea is to think about your associations with that animal and how that can apply to yourself.These same cards can also be used to play a series of fun games, since there are 144 cards, which can easily be combined in various ways to play a variety of classic and new games, such as Animal Poker, Animal Gin, Animal Auction, Animal Concentration, Animal Treasure Hunt, Animal Tales, and more. You can also play team games by dividing up the deck, which is easily divided by 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, or 72. Or pull out certain types of cards, such as all the insects, reptiles, birds, mammals, marine animals or farm animals. The games featured include:- Animal Olympics- Animal Poker- Animal Concentration- Animal Gin- Animal Treasure Hunt- Animal Tales- Animal Fortune Teller- Animal Charades- Save the Animals- What's My Animal?Plus you can create your own animal games.While the animals are listed in alphabetical order, you want to cut out all the Animal Cards, which are printed four to a page, to create a card deck with the picture and name of the animal on one side. Or ideally print out the Animal Cards on card stock and cut those up. You can use the whole deck or selected Animal Cards to play the different games. The cards to use are included with the rules for each game. Once you have cut out all the cards and selected the cards to be used in each game, you can shuffle the cards like a deck of cards or spread them out face down and mix them up on a table top. If the cards are a deck, a dealer can deal them out or you can draw from the deck. Or if the cards are spread out, players can pick cards from the face down deck for themselves or others. The animals selected for Animal Insights come from a list of well-known animals -- from crustaceans, insects, and reptiles to fish, birds, and mammals. Where the animal has many species or breeds, such as a dog or cat, the cards feature several different breeds, and you can choose any species or breed. All of the Animal Cards are in Section I. The games you can play with them are in Section II. If a game calls for using counters or chips to keep score, you can buy these at a game or toy store or get a bag of beans at a grocery store. Another possibility is to use corn chips or potato chips -- just don't eat them! If the game needs a score sheet, you can create one on a sheet of paper. So now, let the games begin!
