Special Frozen Features
The Frozen edition transforms standard Monopoly spaces with Arendelle locations and themed cards featuring the beloved characters.

The properties include locations like Arendelle Castle, Ice Palace, and Oaken's Trading Post, all with purchase prices and rental amounts tailored for the Junior version.
Winning the Game
Unlike traditional Monopoly where you try to bankrupt opponents, in Monopoly Junior Frozen Edition, the first player to run out of money wins! As you buy properties, pay rent, and encounter Frozen-themed scenarios, you'll spend your banknotes. When a player has spent all their money, they are declared the winner.
Important Rules
- If you cannot pay rent, you must sell properties back to the Bank at half their value
- You can only buy properties directly from the Bank when you land on them
- If the Bank runs out of money, the Banker may create additional banknotes
- You cannot collect money while in Jail
- The game ends when one player has spent all their money
Board Properties
The board features the following Frozen-themed properties (with their purchase/rental prices):
- Arendelle Castle - $6/$3
- Ice Palace - $6/$3
- Marshmallow's Cave - $5/$2

Playing Tips
For Adults: Help younger children with counting and basic money management. The simplified math makes this an excellent educational tool.
Strategy: Since the goal is to spend money, buying properties is advantageous. However, be strategic about which properties to purchase first, as those with higher rental values give you opportunities to get your money back when opponents land on them.
