The invention is a means of playing an educational board game. Topics for children to which this means of play can be applied include safety around dogs, street-proofing, accident prevention, manners and dog obedience training. The game comprises a game board and playing markers, a numbered spinning device to define movement around the board and sets of instructional cards. By way of messages on the game board, activities described on the various instructional cards and various means of reward and penalty set out in the rules, several learning and teaching strategies are employed so that players are amused and learning concurrently. These strategies include modelling, conditioning, positive and negative reinforcement, response to verbal and visual cues, and physical activity. Individual and group activities occur throughout the period of play. Criteria for success in some of the activities are graded to provide greater challenge for older children and adults.
