Question 1

my game came without instructions! Having trouble setting up. Also what if only one or two fruits fall out?

Accepted Answer

I play with young kids and adapted my own rules (so I forget what they really are). Stand the fruit stand up like an easel, put the header into the lost and layer your fruits in here (random is best). Take turns spinning the dial (I go youngest first), if you get red you select a strawberry, etc. If you get a number you get to pick that number of any fruit you want. If you get the star, you get to take a fruit from your opponent (or choice of opponents). If you run out of a certain colored fruit, you spin again. I play until there are no more left.
I believe the real rules are that you lose a turn if your fruit falls out. I am an occupational therapist and I play to build hand strength with kids....so I want them using the tongs as much as possible (which is why I adapted it the way I did).

Question 2

What are the numbers and ⭐️ on spinner for? There were no directions included in our game.

Accepted Answer

Hello! The instructions are on the liner (which props up the stand, to which the Velcro and ribbons are attached). If you spin a star, pick any piece of fruit from another play and put it in your pile.  Feel free to reach out on our site under the "contact us" page with any other questions you may have.
