How to play
The player, who can caw the most like a parrot, starts the game.
If you can not agree, the youngest player starts by rolling the die.
The other players follow in a clockwise direction.
What appears on the die?
• The flying parrot
➔ One of your parrots is sitting on a food-dish?
Move it to a free seesaw.
➔ None of your parrots is sitting on a food-dish?
You can move any parrot of another player sitting on a
food-dish onto a free seesaw.
➔ No parrot at all is sitting on a food-dish?
Fly one of your parrots to a free seesaw.
• The black parrot
You can fly Blacky to any free seesaw.
Watch out: Blacky never flies to a food-dish.
• One, two or three dots
You can move one of your parrots one, two or three squares in
a clockwise direction taking in account the following:
➔ Occupied squares (seesaws and food-dishes) are jumped
over and not counted.
Exception: The seesaw with Blacky on it may never be
jumped over.
➔ Whoever can not move their parrot because Blacky sits in
the way can roll the die a second and last time.
➔ You are obliged to move, that is, whoever can move one of
their parrots, has to.

Aim of the game
Whoever, with a bit of luck and some thought, lands directly on
the food-dish may take a cookie as a reward. Whoever is the first
to collect four cookies, wins the game.
Preparation of the game
Put all the game material into the lid of the game box.
Place the bottom part of the box in the center of the table.
You can see the squares on the four sides of the bottom part.
There are two types of squares: seesaws and food-dishes.
Stick Blacky on the edge of the bottom part of the box on a
square with a seesaw. Also, distribute to each player two parrots
of identical colors and place them on any of the seesaws.
Place the parrots’ discs of the corresponding colors face down
and shuffle them. Each player takes a disc, uncovers it and puts it
face up in front of them. It indicates the color of their parrot.
Die and cookies are placed ready to be used.
If there are less than 4 players, the remaining parrots and discs
are kept in the lid of the game box.
