Zucchini

2 to 4 Players, Ages 4 to 8

I don’t know about you, but I don’t like wasting food and I can be found at Market Gardens, first considering the bins of Days Old Sale Items to see if I can find ingredients to make some of the food I am planning for the next few meals.

In this game, players try to gather the Ingredients to fill various Shopping Lists. Do this before the Ingredients spoil and go to the Green Bins and the Recycle Truck, and are carted off to the Recycle Compost Depot.

(Do your kids know what a zucchini is? No, it’s not a new car model. It is a summer squash, dark green and smooth skinned. It grows as a compact, bushy plant, and its squash fruit are greatly liked by Italian people, like me. It’s good for you! Trust me.)

Includes: game board, 10 spoiled stuff signs, 20 ingredients, 6 shopping lists, shopping cart, recycle truck, rules. © 2009
