Candyland Gameboard
Ingenious: I like Ingenious because it is a really fun game. You have tiles with two colors on each tile. For each identical symbol that you line up, you move one square on your score board. When you cannot place a tile on the game board, the game immediately ends. You count up your points by seeing where your color that is closest to zero. Then you go up with your finger to see what your score is. The player with the highest score wins the game! The really cool thing about Ingenious is that you can play by yourself and the more players, the wider the board gets. The best thing about Ingenious for me is that my dad can never beat me!
Lombard Street Becomes a Candyland Game Board
“HAPPY BIRTHDAY CANDYLAND”
Video Highlights: Dozens of children in San Francisco played a life-sized board game on the city’s famous Lombard Street to celebrate Candyland’s 60th birthday. As AP’s Haven Daley reports, it was also a trip down memory lane for adults. See Video below
Donald Duck, the irascible but unflappable waterfowl, celebrates his 75th birthday today! (June 09, 2009)
In his 75 years, his feathered anti-hero has tried his hand at more than 100 different professions, but failed at them all. Donald always seems to be short of cash and make a habit of lurching from one misadventure to the next.
San Francisco’s Lombard Street, full of hairpin curves and known as “the crookedest street in the world” was turned into Candyland Wednesday to celebrate the game’s 60th anniversary. Children from from UC San Francisco Children’s Hospital and the organization Friends of the Children formed teams to play the oversized game. They also interacted with game characters and enjoyed birthday cake.
Let’s see how much you know about this classic board game.
