Description
It has been an unusually cold and snowy winter in the town of Pine Cove and the townspeople are counting on their resident groundhog Woody NOT to see his shadow. As folklore tells us, if the groundhog emerges from his burrow and sees his shadow, there will be six more weeks of winter. If he doesn't see his shadow, spring is just around the corner. Unfortunately, the forecast is only partly cloudy for February 2nd this year, and if the clouds don't completely block the sun, then it looks like the people of Pine Cove will need their winter clothes for longer than they'd hoped. Let's try to help them out. Try to move all 4 clouds over the sun before Woody's alarm clock rings on February 2nd. To move the clouds you have to find them hiding behind the speech targets. Name the picture you want to move. If there is a cloud behind it, you may drag one cloud over the sun. If you uncover Woody sleeping, it's ok. Just keep naming the cards and looking for all 4 clouds. If you find all 4 clouds and cover the sun before uncovering Woody's alarm clock, you did it!! Drag and drop the red arrow that says, "Spring is just around the corner" to the entrance of Woody's burrow. But if you uncover the alarm clock before completely blocking the sun, then Woody will see his shadow. Drag the red arrow that says, "Six more weeks of winter" in front of the burrow instead. Try and see how many times you can successfully cover the sun. There are 6 game cards and 54 speech targets.
