Description

Contents
4 old lady playing boards, 28 animal picture cards, 1 animal size guide
The object is to collect all the cards named on your Old Lady playing board. However, these must be collected in size order, from the smallest to the biggest.
The youngest player begins by picking up one of the cards from the face down cards on the table, showing it to all players. If the card they have picked up is a fly, they place it face up on their old lady playing board singing the line from the song. If it is any other animal they return it, face down, to the table. Play then continues in a clockwise direction with each player trying to collect the animals in the sequence shown on the animal size guide, singing the line from the song each time they pick up the correct animal card. Each card is placed on top of the previous card in the sequence on their old lady board.
The winner is the first player to pick up all the animal cards in the correct sequence, placing them on their old lady board, at which time everybody sings the song from beginning to end.
