  More from the MuseumTour expert:
Board games are a great way to spend quality family time, or for friends to engage in a healthy competition. They teach valuable social skills such as communicating verbally, sharing, waiting, taking turns, and enjoying interactions with others. They lengthen attention spans, sharpen focusing skills, and encourage attention to detail.
Don't stop horsing around

Learn what it's like to be a wild horse on the range. Get a feel for what a ranch hand does when he or she ropes a horse. Herd Your Horses! is a horse lover’s dream game.

Join the herd for 3 wild adventures
In each adventure, you will learn all about these beautiful animals while you play:
1. Mustang Adventure: You and your friends play mustangs that have just escaped from a ranch. To survive in the wild, you must gather a herd of mares and foals. Watch out for predators, drought, human mustangers, and other hazards.

2. Rancher's Roundup: Now you change points of view. You are ranchers, and your prized horses have just broken free. You all agree on a friendly contest to see who can round up horses by brand and make it to Green River Valley first.

3. Rancher's Revenge: Your friendly contest turns into a game of knowledge and strategy as you round up horses by their color families (roan, gray, and so on) and markings (stocking, blaze, and so on).

Plus: Rules for three simple solitare games are included!

What's Inside: 55 Full-Color Horse Cards, 4 Horse Playing Pieces, 42 Adventure Cards, Game Board and Die, Booklet (includes rules, information about horses, and a reading list).

Parents and Educators: Herd your Horses! Is an extra-special treat for horse lovers, but all players will enjoy learning how and why horses live in herds, that they have best friends, and more. In time, they will even see subtle differences in breeds, colors and markings. Herd Your Horses! will deepen every child's knowledge and love of these magnificent animals.

The kids in my daughter's fourth grade class thought this game looked interesting, but the thick set of rules is intimidating. They haven't figured out on their own how to play it, so it isn't a popular choice for indoor recess or free time.
