What's In This Picture

The illustration displays a large board game resting on a sturdy table with chairs tucked in behind it. A long, winding path curves across the board, marked with distinct spaces for players to land on. Along the way, you can spot a variety of animals including a tall giraffe, a friendly bear, and a spotted cow. There are even smaller creatures like a tiny mouse and a fluffy chicken tucked into different corners of the map. The board also features a small river with a bridge crossing over it, plus little houses and cars that make the game world feel alive. Near the edge of the board, you will see the dice and player pawns waiting for the next turn to be taken.

Coloring Tips

Since this is a game board, using bright and contrasting colors for the path spaces will help them stand out. You might choose a bold red or blue for the player pawns to make them look like they are really moving. For the natural elements, try using several shades of green for the trees and bushes to give the scenery more depth. The river looks great in a shimmering light blue, while the elephant could be a soft grey or even a whimsical purple. Because there are many small characters and objects, using sharpened colored pencils or fine-tip markers will help you stay within the lines of the smaller animals like the mouse and duck.

Did You Know?

Did you know that board games have been around for thousands of years? One of the oldest known games is called Senet, which was played in Ancient Egypt over 5,000 years ago. Just like the game in this picture, ancient games often used a path and special pieces to tell a story or race to the end.

Try This!

After you finish coloring the board, you can grab a real pair of dice and use small buttons as pawns to actually play on the page. You could also make up a special rule for each animal space, such as making a trunk sound when you land on the elephant or hopping like a chicken to the next space.
