MONKEY
CATAPULT ALL YOUR MONKE
INTO THE TREE FIRST AND W
OBJECT: To be the first player to catapult all of your monkeys into the tree to win the bananas!
CONTENT: 2 halves of the tree, 1 large circle of leaves, 1 small circle of leaves, 8 monkeys, 8 bananas & 2 catapults.
SET UP: Hold the catapult so the circle with the ridge is face up. About 2 inches behind the circle is a small, rectangular tab. Turn the catapult over EKTA side face up. Lift the circle end and fold it over so that the tab goes into the u-shaped slot on the catapult base (see illustration). Press firmly and the tab will snap into the slot.
Take the two halves of the tree and line up the pegs with the holes on each side of the tree and push the both halves together.
There are two sets of leaves to place on the tree. Take the large circle of leaves and hold it over the tree so the shape in the center fits over the same shape on the top of the tree. Push the large circle of leaves down until it sit on the large branches in the middle of the tree. Do the same with the small circle of leaves so that it sits on the small branches on the top part of the
tree.
Each player takes one catapult and the four monkeys that match the colour of their catapult. Each player also takes four bananas.
PLAYING : Each player puts one of their bananas in the "Banana Pile", Keep the rest of your bananas near you. The youngest player starts by saying. "Jumping' Monkeys!" Now both players should try to catapult their monkeys into the tree.
CATAPULTING THE MONKEYS: Put your catapult in front of you so that the circle is closest to you and aim it towards the tree. Put one of your monkeys on your catapult so that the ridge of the circle holds the monkey in place. Hold the bottom of the catapult with one hand to keep it steady. With your other hand, use one finger to press down on the tab and let it go (see illustration). Your monkey will jump in to the air and hopefully land in to the tree! If your monkey does not land in to the tree, check to make sure that your catapult is aimed towards the tree.
