Preparation
Fold the game board up and remove all items from the box. Now fold the
board back down and insert the cherry tree into the
slot. Hang the pairs of cherries from the tree and
put the raven on the starting square where you
see his foot prints.
Shuffle the cards and spread them out in
front of the box with the flower side
facing up. They should not lie on top
of each other.
Get the color die ready.
Sit in such a way that you can all
clearly see the flower cards and
the raven.
How to play
The player who is the best at cawing like a raven may start. If you can-
not agree then the youngest player starts by rolling the dice.
What appears on the dice?
•
The red, yellow, blue, white or violet flower?
Look for a card with a flower of the corresponding color and
turn it over.
•
The sun?
Take any flower card and turn it over.
What appears on the backside of the card?
•
A Cherry?
Fine! You can pick a pair of cherries from the tree and put it into
the basket. Also take the turned over card and keep it face up in
front of you.
•
The cheeky raven?
Oh, dear! The little raven hops a littler closer to the tree. Cover the
card again. Take the raven and move it on a square, shouting “Caw,
caw“.
•
A sleeping animal?
Hush. Be quiet not to wake up the animal.
Cover the card up again.
It’s the turn of the next player, in a clockwise direction, to roll the dice.
