The board has 63 spaces, with certain ones marked with obstacles that send a player backwards or holds them stationary for multiple rounds. The first person to the end finish the route wins.

‘SJOELEN‘ (shuffle) or ‘SJOELBAK‘ (shuffleboard) was invented by the Dutch in the 1800’s. The game involves sliding 30 disks across a 2-meter wooden board with the goal of having them pass through one of the 4 tight-fitting slots at the opposite end. The point value of the four slots from left to right are 2-3-4-1. The disks that are stranded in the mid-field after the 30 discs are played are retrieved and shot again for the second round and likewise for the third round. The player with the highest point total after three rounds is the winner. Buy Sjoelbak

‘PIM PAM PET‘ is a board game that involves cards with questions written on them and a spinner wheel surrounded by letters of the alphabet.
