honey pots for flower colors

If you want to collect honey pots, you need to survey carefully and react quickly to place your bee on the right flower tile in the grid.

30 flower tiles are laid out in a random arrangement in a 6x5 grid, every player takes a bee marker. Chips showing one, two or three honey pots are set oud, as is the color die for the flower colors.

One player rolls the die: All players try simultaneously to place their bee on the flower tile at the cross point of the row and column where there are most correlations with the result of the die roll. You count the color of the petals as well as the color of the flower pistil, that is the little circle in the middle of the flowers, but every flower is only counted once. You must react quickly, because each flower tile has only room for one bee. When all bees have been placed, you check all rows and columns and players receive chips with honey pots: Two honey pots for the most flowers counted in case of two players, two and one honey pot for first and second place in case of three players, and three, two and one honey pot for first, second and third place in case of four and five players. When there is a tie, all players involved in the tie receive the respective number of honey pots.

Before the next round is played, every player switches the positions of two flower tiles in the grid.

This is a game exactly like games for children should be - simple, easy to handle, with lots of obvious fun to play and lots of not so obvious but all the same effective educational content; in Beesmart it is colors, counting, quick and exact observation and fast fast reactions. Pretty and felicitous!
