Game Play
Place all delicious acorns inside the tree...
Give each player his or her own log-shaped game piece...
Pass the Squirrel Spinner to the youngest player and let him or her spin...
If You Spin:
If the wheel stops on a color, use the Squirrel Squeezer to grab a matching acorn and place it in the matching hole in your log. If that hole is already full, skip your turn.
One acorn - Choose any acorn from the tree and use the Squirrel Squeezer to place it in the hole in your log with the matching color!
Two acorns - Choose any two acorns from the tree and use the Squirrel Squeezer to drop them in the holes in your log with the matching colors!
The Sneaky Squirrel - Use the Squirrel Squeezer to steal any colored acorn you need for your log from another player's log!
Sad Squirrel - Pass the Squirrel Squeezer to the player on your left and skip your turn.
Squirrel Storm - Oh no! A furious storm blew all of your acorns back into the tree! Put them back and skip your turn.
Once you've made your move, pass the Squirrel Squeezer to the player on your left-it's their turn now!
