Children's Game

A simplified building game for kids, based on the immensely popular The Settlers of Catan, wherein all players take part in the game at all times. The high quality wooden pieces are suitable not only for the game, but also for "free play."

Each player in turn rolls the die, and rotates the village plan clockwise that number of spaces. Resources are collected by each player depending on where their piece lands, and if one of each resource type has been collected by any player, that player may place one of their buildings on the village plan. If a player has built all of their buildings, they may build the Town Hall. The first player to build the Town Hall wins.

Belongs to the Catan Series.

Players race to construct a plastic bug, rolling a die to see which piece they get to add.

The Hennepin History Museum states that the first Cootie game was designed by William H. Schaper in 1949. However, Schaper's game was not the first based upon the insect known as the "cootie". The creature was the subject of several tabletop games, mostly pencil and paper games, in the decades of the twentieth century following World War I.

In 1927, the J. H. Warder Company of Chicago released Tu-Tee, and the Charles Bowlby Company released Cootie; though based on a "build a bug" concept similar to Schaper's, both were paper and pencil games.
Schaper's game was the first to employ a fully three dimensional, free-standing plastic cootie.

Known in Australia as Creepy Critters and in the UK as Beetle Drive.

Super Tooth is an original, fast-paced card game set in a prehistoric world of dinosaurs, in which players race to collect sets of plant-eaters before hungry carnivores chase them away.

Super Tooth is a highly re-playable family game for 2 to 4 players ages 5 and up, that can be played in 15 minutes, built with just enough luck and layered with subtle strategy to keep players of all ages entertained and engaged.

From Farm Fresh Games website: "Race through the Jurassic era, collecting plant-eating dinosaurs before the carnivores have them for dinner! Triceratops can help protect them, but the mighty T-Rex is on the prowl and fears no beast. Avoid volcanos and other dangers along the way.

A card game for 2 to 4 players, ages 5 and up, about 15 minutes."

The Wild, Which-Way-Did-They-Land Game

Spotcha! takes fast eyes and faster hands. Start by tossing the 18 oddball objects and watch how they land. Flip a card and the race is on. Is the lawn mower rightside-up? Is the ghost face down? Look, the wizard hat is on its side! Quick, grab the correct scoring flags before anyone else. Everybody plays on every turn, so it's all-out, mad-cap fun for everyone!

Taboo Junior is a simpler version of the parent game, advertised for ages 8 to 12. Players divide into two teams, racing their tokens on parallel tracks to the finish line. A card is secretly drawn and a "clue giver" tries to get his team to say the word on it...without using any of three related words that are also on the card. The team has a timer during which they score as many clues as possible. The number correct is the number of squares the token is moved.

One difference from the original game is that the "buzzer" is actually a plastic squeak toy instead of the harsh electric buzzer. The clues are also much easier, common words than in the adult game.
