Place your marker on START. Players spin the spinner and follow the directions. If you land on the picture of the bar of soap the player to your left draws a card and reads it out loud. On each card is a question about the 6th commandment. If you answer the question correctly, you stay where you are. If you are not correct, you must move to the bathtub and clean up your act. On your next turn you are asked another question and you cannot get out of the bathtub until you answer a question correctly. If you answer a question correctly, you may resume your position on the game board. If a player lands on a rubber duck, they may change places with the leader. The first player to FINISH wins.
