Bottles and Bins 1982

In this kids game children learn about waste separation. The map shows 4 houses and a street leading to the waste disposal site. Each house has a garbage can. There are also two garbage trucks. These Trucks start collecting waste at the beginning of the game. The game ends when those trucks reach the disposal site. Players work together to sort all the trash before the trucks pass by their houses. And because this is a cooperative game, you can give your turn to another player if he or she needs it. Goal of the game is that the players try to dispose their garbage to be recycled before the trucks reach the disposal site. If all the garbage is sorted by the time the trucks come to pick it up, everybody wins! The cards show different kinds of recyclable waste such as paper and glass, material to compost but also hazardous waste. One of the two dice decides which waste to handle the other advances the garbage trucks.
