Before beginning,

choose the game

you would like

to play based

on the number

of players.

GLOBeTROTTeRS

the earth and live out of their suitcases.

So that everything goes well, they need a

passport to clear Customs. This version is

played with the 44 suitcase cards and

the “Passport” cards.

GReaT eXPLOReRSExperienced travellers are always on the

lookout for exciting new challenges, pushing

themselves to the limit. Huge expeditions

require a large number of items. This version is played with the 44 suitcase cards, the “Passport” cards

and the 8 multi-item cards.

LITTLe aDVeNTUReRS

a few days, they must bring everything they need

with them. This version is played with the

44 suitcase cards.

Before playing the

game for the first time:

place a

self-adhesive

sticker on each

side of the suitcase.

AIM OF THE GAMESucceed at naming, in sequence, all items placed in the “suitcase deck.”

SET UP1. Shuffle the 44 suitcase cards and lay them face

down in a deck at the centre of the table (set aside the 8 multi-item cards). Note: If the players wish, this deck or “reserve” can also be placed in the plastic suitcase included in the box.

2. Choose at random who goes first.3. Each player takes a turn clockwise.

PLAYING THE GAME• Start the game by saying: I’m going on a trip and

I put in my suitcase… • Take the top card from the reserve, show it to all the

other players and name the item out loud. Place the card face down to form a new “suitcase deck.” Then, the next player takes a turn and starts by saying the same sentence. This player must first name, in sequence, all the items placed in the “suitcase deck” before naming the item on the new card drawn from the reserve.

• The customs officer (the person to the right of the player) ensures that the sequence is recited correctly by checking the contents of the “suitcase deck” as the player names them.

• If you make a mistake while reciting the sequence, you are eliminated. If you recite the sequence correctly, the next player takes a turn.

• Each turn in the game takes place as follows: You start by saying the sentence and naming in sequence all the items placed in the “suitcase deck.” You complete your turn by naming the item on the new card.

As the “suitcase deck” fills, it becomes harder for the players to name, in sequence, all the items without making a mistake!

END OF THE GAMEThe game ends when only one player remains or all the cards in the reserve have been drawn. This player wins the game.

If there is more than one winner, this means that the players are excellent adventurers ready to take on new challenges. They will need their passports to play the Globetrotters game.

AIM OF THE GAMECollect the most suitcase cards after four rounds of play.



2. Choose at random who goes first.3. Your opponent acts as the customs officer.

COOPERATIVE VERSION

Players are not eliminated in this version. When you make a mistake or are unable to recite the sequence correctly, the player to your left helps you. If this player cannot help you, the player to his or her left helps you, and so on until the sequence is recited correctly. The customs officer does not play a role in the cooperative version. The player who recites the sequence correctly continues to play and picks a new card.

END OF THE COOPERATIVE GAMEThe game ends when no player can recite the sequence correctly or all the cards in the reserve have been drawn.

“PASSPORT” CARDS“Passport” cards increase the level of difficulty because they contain information on the identities of 8 different characters.

You can determine the level of difficulty by choosing the amount of information to state, based on players’ ages.Information on the “Passport” cards need not be stated in order.

Example:• A child might state 2 or 3 characteristics. I have a red passport and I am from Canada.

• An older child or adult might state 5 or 6 characteristics. my name is Jocelyne Tremblay. I have a red passport. I am from Canada. I have blond hair. I am wearing glasses and red earrings.

my name is Jocelyne Tremblay. I have a red passport and

I am from Canada.

You will be surprised

to discover how much

children remember!

MULTI-ITEM CARDSThese cards have an orange contour.Multi-items cards considerably increase the level of difficulty because they each contain a series of items to memorize, contrary to the suitcase cards that contain only one item.

You can determine the level of difficulty by choosing the number of items to name, based on players’ ages. The contents of multi-item cards need not be named in order.

Example:• A child might name 2 or 3 items.• An older child or adult might name up to 8 items.

Here are some tips to offer the child to optimize his or her skill at memorizing. These suggestions will encourage the child to learn while having fun!

Memory is a faculty that can be used in different ways. Information that is memorized is perceived by our five senses. Memorized information must be properly organized and classified in our memory so we can recall it easily. This is why it is important to show the child how to use his or her memory effectively at an early age.

To achieve this, show the child how to use the following strategies to memorize information.

1. Use one or several of the five senses: linking something to a sense enhances recall.

2. Organize information to be memorized in categories.

3. Make up a story with the information to memorize.

4. Make up a song where information to memorize replaces the original lyrics.

Take the following example where the child has four cards to memorize: my poutine-flavoured chips, my popcorn machine, my dentist and my toothpaste.

1. Use one or several of the five senses: • Sight: Ask the child to imagine the dentist

brushing his teeth with toothpaste after eating chips and popcorn.

• Hearing: Ask the child to think about the sound of chips being eaten or the sound of popcorn popping (ask the child to repeat out loud the words in order several times).

• Taste: When possible, ask the child to think about what the object to memorize tastes like. In this case, one might think about the taste of chips, popcorn and toothpaste.

• Smell: Bring the child to think about what chips, popcorn and toothpaste smell like.

• Touch: When possible, ask the child to imagine the crisp texture of chips, the crunchy texture of popcorn and the smooth texture of toothpaste.

2. Organize information to be memorized in categories:

-> Chips + Popcorn = Food -> Toothpaste + Dentist = Teeth3. Make up a story:

I brush my teeth before going to the dentist’s because I ate chips and popcorn.

4. Make up a song: Replace the lyrics of a song with everything the child must memorize. The more the child likes the song, the faster the child will recall the information.

* Important! The most important thing is the quality of the associations made between the different pieces of information. Children are not always able to associate things that go well together. While playing the game, children learn through examples given by adults.

* Attention! The game should be an interesting and fun-filled activity. Parents should set simple goals for children to motivate them. Increase the level of difficulty slowly. To respect the child’s development, give the child a few tips here and there, without imposing too many. A few tips offered during a game could make a huge difference!
