Play Synopsis: Most children are familiar with the traditional board game, Candy Land. As soon as the first tokens travel down the Rainbow Trail when the kids are playing this board game, they are tossed into a land far from home. How did this happen? Hint: It has something to do with the lick of a sucker. Soon their dog Brownie and the kids meet the Candy Land characters. Can you name them? Will the children (and Brownie) find Candy Castle and protect the land from Lord Licorice, the evil ruler? What does King Kandy do? How do you think the story ends? Do the children get to return home, safe and sound? Will they ever play Candy Land again?
