General

Moving on is a Monopoly-like board game with cards, colorful dice, and money. Description derrived from provided documentation: Moving On was developed by Amaletta, a travelling person whose artwork reflects her experiences and lifestyle, and Robert Dawson, a retired head teacher with a life-long interest in and friendship with Travellers. The board game is designed to be played by up to six children at one time. The aim of the game is to encourage Traveller children to enjoy learning, and for other children to gain an insight into the needs and difficulties of Travelling people.
