, aimed at young children. It has a smaller, rectangular board and instead of being based on street names it is based on a Funfair

Funfair

Board

(In the Canadian version, "Cafe" is "Lunch" and "Uncle Pennybags" is "Mr. Monopoly".)

Gameplay

On their turn, a player rolls the die or spins the spinner (depending on the version) and moves that number of spaces clockwise around the board. The player then acts depending on the space on which they have landed:

An Amusement without a Ticket Booth

The player pays the bank the amount shown on the space and places one of their colored ticket booths on the space.

An Amusement with a Ticket Booth

The player must pay the owner of the ticket booth the amount shown on the space. If the owner also owns the other Amusement of the same color, the player must pay double the amount shown on the space.

A Railway

The player must roll the die or spin the spinner again and move the number of spaces shown.

Fireworks or Water Show

The player must pay $2 and put the money on the space marked "Uncle Pennybags's Loose Change"

Café / Lunch / Restrooms

If the player lands here by roll of the die or spin of the spinner, they are "Just Waiting" and they simply move off the space on their next turn.

Go to the Café (Restrooms)

The player puts $3 on "Mr. Monopoly's Loose Change" and moves their playing piece to the café or restrooms, but the player cannot earn $2 after the game continues from the café or restrooms on their next turn.

Mr. Monopoly's Loose Change / Uncle Pennybag's Loose Change

If there is any money on this space when a player lands on it, they get to take the money for themselves.

Chance

The player picks up the top CHANCE card, follows its instructions, then returns it to the bottom of the pile.

Go to... or Take a ride...

The player moves their piece to the space indicated and collects $2 if they pass GO unless otherwise instructed.

Free Ticket Booth

If an Amusement of the color on the card is unowned, the player must place one of their ticket booths on that space: they now own that Amusement. If one space is owned, a player may elect to either replace this ticket booth with their own ticket booth or place their ticket booth on the unoccupied space. If both Amusements are owned by different players, the player must replace one of the ticket booths with one of their own. If both Amusements are owned by the same player, the player cannot replace a ticket booth; they must discard this CHANCE card and draw a new one.

Winning the Game

When one player runs out of money the game ends. All other players total their money and the player with the most money wins.
