Into the Forest: Nature’s Food Chain Game (C.R. 591.53 I61) will help children to learn about the food web in a temperate forest and teach them about predator-prey relationships. Cards are dealt among the players, each one showing a plant or animal in the forest and listing what the organism eats and is eaten by. Players take turns challenging each other, winning cards from others that fall lower on the food chain. The cards can also be used to play versions of Solitaire, Concentration, and Rummy.
The kit includes 41 cards, a score pad, and detailed instructions. Also included is the Nature’s forest food web, an illustrated chart that shows how all animals depend on plants, which are at the beginning of the food chain. Recommended for 2-6 players, age 7 and up.
