This board game uses the characters from A. A. Milne's books about Winnie-the-Pooh. Each character has a colour and a corresponding coloured path. Pooh is yellow, Piglet purple, Kanga green, Eeyore orange and Rabbit blue. Each must complete its own route, and the first character to do so is the winner.
