  • Patent number: 6120296
    Abstract: An educational board game includes a game board divided into a plurality of play locations sized to accept player position markers. The play locations are divided into five categories of spaces. Landing of each type of location produces distinct results. Motion of the position markers along the play path is governed by a random number generator, such as a pair of dice. Some of the play locations have associated decks of cards, with each of the cards testing a player's knowledge of behavior appropriate for dangerous situations or safety rules. Players are given reward tokens for providing correct responses to the questions posed by the cards. Other play locations require players to recite an accepted rule for safe street crossing; players receive tokens for correctly reciting one of the rules. Players also receive tokens for landing upon "safe haven" locations. The tokens are traded for six types of collectible items, with possession of each type of item being required to win the game.
