Description
Product Features
Aunty Ruth sends us into her Orchards to gather Apples, fill the boxes and bring them to her little Store by the Highway, where lots of people stop by. There are 4 different Apples to pick. Aunty Ruth wants some to sell for Eating, some for making Cider & Juice, some for Baking and some for Sauces. Each player spins to see from which Orchard to pick apples. But watch out for the wormy ones or those chewed up by deer!
When everyone has had a turn at the spinner, we help to fill as many of the different boxes as we can with the apples we picked, and count up how many different boxed collections we managed to finish. Then Aunty Ruth pays our Crew for the work done. Thus, our math skills of adding and dividing get some practice. Apple picking is indeed hard work, but really worthwhile.

Company Details:
Jim Deacove started making co-operative games for his own family and was encouraged by friends to make more. The Deacove family was and is no different from others. Sharing toys, helping mom and dad and being kind to others are values taught in all homes. To find games which help reinforce such sharing attitudes, however, was very difficult. Thus, Jim and Ruth felt the need to create some. In 1972, the "hobby" became a small business. The games are still made in small quantities, as a labor of love. For 40 years plus now Family Pastimes has used eco-friendly materials in making of their games. They use 100% recycled pasteboard, water based glues, non-toxic paints on the wooden pieces, soy-based and latex inks on recycled papers, corrugated containers from recycled papers, recyclable shrink film and even take care to pack shipments with reused materials that secured from local retailers.
