Description
Celebrate the Earth with this eco-friendly version of a classic, the Earthopoly Board Game from Late for the Sky! Instead of focusing on money and real estate, the Earthopoly Board Game challenges players to become caretakers of the Earth, collecting Carbon Credits and trading them in for Clean Air! Earthopoly Game keeps players traveling around the board in a game of skill and chance, as they try to "Go Green" and avoid being sent to the dump! Best of all, the Earthopoly Board Game is made in a very eco-conscious way: all paper is recyclable, the ink is soy-based, the insert is 100% bottle grade plastic, the shrink wrap is corn based and completely biodegradable. And, as we are sure you will notice, all of the game pieces in the Earthopoly Board Game from Late for the Sky are made by nature or are recycled in some way. While they may vary, right now they are a lima bean, a US crystal, bamboo, a walnut pyramid from recycled wood, recycled glass, a shell, and carnelian. Not only does Earthopoly Game celebrate the Earth, it comes from it too! For 2-6 players.

VerbalBenefits
Play based on reading, writing, but NOT arithmetic! Linguistic play is perfect for children who love language - written and oral. They learn best through books, crosswords, and listening to recordings. Play can include anything that focuses on written words, like word board games; or oral words, like story telling sessions or books on tape. Linguistic play will improve listening skills, allow for word creation and association, and benefit overall language skills. So, keep their lips loving to learn language!

Manipulative
Manipulative Play
Play that involves hand-eye coordination and motor skills. Children need the opportunity to work on finer skills that involve a little more control and direction. Manipulative play develops the sense of coordination, challenging their little fingers to follow the lines or use their tools properly. Some examples of manipulative play are: * Coloring, especially in a defined area * Paper crafts and art involving moving parts that need to be "put together" * Using a safe and simple tool kit to help with tasks around the house Cutting out a sunshine for the window or painting within the lines — all these activities are the perfect exercise for this type of play.
