Dealing
Birde deals five cards to each player, beginning on their left. Remaining cards are left aside in the pile. The pile is left aside as it will be used at the end of the round.
Birde then turns a card in the furthest row of the Bus. All players with a card with the same face value may choose to play as many as they have. If Birde has a playable card, they nominate any other player to take a drink of the Birde's choice.
Play continues with Birde gradually showing every card in the Bus, being sure to empty each row before uncovering the next.
The round ends once the card in the bottom row of the Bus has been acquired.

“The wisest thing a parent can do is to let preschool children figure out themselves how to draw the human figure, or solve a whole range of problems, from overcoming Saturday-morning boredom to dealing with a neighborhood bully.

—John F. Clabby (20th century)
