Prairie Dog Town Stacking Puzzle

Description

.com Pop! Is that little head over yonder a prairie dog? Yup, a ton o' prairie dogs, Pardner, and you'd better rustle up those puppies before they escape all over your house. In this puzzle from Binary Arts, the prairie dogs make their burrows in a rectangle of lime green plastic pieces. The puzzle separates into eight pieces: two flat squares with holes for the top and bottom and six rectangles, each with a different configuration of tiny prairie dog heads and holes. The object is to put the rectangles back in place so that all the pieces lie flat with no prairie dog heads poking up. A hint sheet will help those who need assistance rounding 'em up, and it gives some interesting facts about prairie dogs, too. Back to your burrows, now--get along, little doggies! --Marcie Bovetz Review Includes 8 plastic pieces and hint sheet Measures 3 inches by 1.5 inches when assembled Skills: critical thinking, decision making Supply is limited --
