the dice. Moving in the direction of the arrows. When a player lands on
one of the garden spots (even if his roll equals a greater number of
spaces), he should stop on the square and take one of the picture props
and place that picture next to him. Then the next player rolls. Continue
taking turns rolling the dice and moving around the board.
