The target consists of a park layout that fits inside the box bottom with a dark green outer overlabel. The park has a pale blue circular pond at center, with a printed black, red, and blue design around it representing a fence. A round metal fence is placed over this area. A silver-colored metal piece depicting a baby holding something up is placed at the center.

The park also has 4 amorphous green areas in each corner, identical top and bottom and also mirror images left and right. The green areas represent grass. Each green area has round or oval areas within them along with 5 tree markings (on the left green areas) or 4 tree markings (on the right green areas).

Betwen the green areas and the pond are walkway paths (in offwhite).

The left side has an oval garden area with a red flower in the middle and two yellow flowers to left and right.

The right side has a 5-sided gazebo.

The game also includes 4 different metal rose trees that are green at top and brown for the trunks. One of the taller ones has white flowers; the other, red flowers. One of the smaller ones has light blue flowers; the other, purple flowers. These metal trees are placed in the aforementioned green park areas over some of the markings within those areas.

Copy 1 includes a multitude of squidgers and winks of various colors and sizes.
