Get ready to think outside the (board game) box! In Obstacles, players work together to come up with imaginative ways to overcome obstacles using unlikely tools, such as a coconut, a paper plane, and a feather duster. The more creative and sillier the solutions, the better, making it a great game for children of different ages to play together. Once everyone has shared their solutions, players lay the tool cards on top of the obstacle card to show that the obstacle has been tackled successfully. Coming up with creative solutions helps children practice important cognitive skills such as problem solving, flexible thinking, and logical reasoning, but don’t worry, they will be having too much fun to notice!
Its eco-friendly design (it is made from 90% recycled materials and printed with soy-based ink) and colorful illustrations, make this game as beautiful as it is fun. Try one of the game’s many variations or add to the fun by creating your own obstacles or tools. The possibilities are endless, the only limit is your imagination!
Obstacles is available online here.
