Connect the pages to form the game board. Using tape is recommended.
Choose the first player.
Playing:
The first player rolls a die 🎲 and moves their game piece.
Then, the caller calls out the word that it is on. For example, if it is on “C,” the caller says, “C is for cat!”
The player acts out the word for about 5 seconds. In this case, you would act like a cat. 🐱
Take turns clockwise.
Keep playing until reaching the “Z.”
