Go, for example, and get on an elephant? (5,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

board game

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'go for example' is the definition.
(go is a kind of board game)

'get on an elephant?' is the wordplay.
'get on' becomes 'board' (eg boarding a train).
'an elephant?' becomes 'game' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'board'+'game'='BOARD GAME'

'and' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for board game that I've seen before include "Go for one" , "draughts?" , "Monopoly possibly" , "Eg, chess, go. ludo" .)
