Educational
Games
Activity Village has a selection of Educational Games
for children, some printable and some using objects from around the
home, for your
children to enjoy - while learning at the same time! Many of the games
can be adapted to suit different ages and abilities.
Counting Jars Game
NEW!
Make this yourself or ask older children to make this game for a
younger sibling, to help them learn to count..
Transport Dominoes
and Matching Cards NEW!
Animal dominoes
Balloons
There are a number of ways to play this game. Print out a stack of
“Balloons!” printable sheets (you can use the economy setting on your
printer) and choose the most appropriate variation for your child.
Beat That!
This is an easy game to learn, but one which is very popular with kids
(and not too bad at keeping the odd grown up amused, too!). Great for
learning the concept of place value. Crazy Faces
This game is great for teaching little kids their colours - and it is
fun too! Farmyard
This game helps children practise their counting, counting on and number
visualization skills. It can be played as a file folder game with our
printables, or, by using plastic farm animals, becomes a more "hands-on"
counting game. Four Seasons
The Four Seasons game is a traditional Chinese game used to teach the names and
order of the four seasons in a classroom or group setting.
Going To Boston
A simple game, quick and easy to learn, which gives children plenty of
practise at addition (or multiplication)
Moon Cake
This playground game needs chalk and at least 4 kids, but preferably more. It is
good for children learning their numbers and easy addition. Mouse!
This game may be familiar already - it is certainly an old favourite from
my childhood. It can be enjoyed by any number and age of child and needs
nothing but a scrap of paper, a pencil and a die.
Run For It!
A simple game of sequences (runs) which has the added bonus of helping
kids learn the 5 times table!
Teddy Bear,
Teddy Bear
Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear is an early counting game for little ones, who
will begin to recognise the patterns on a die by looking for the
matching pattern on the teddies. It can be played as either a pencil and
paper game or a board game.
Number Chicks
Similar to Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear, Number Chicks concentrates on number
recognition (rather than counting dots) and includes a fast and fun
variation for older kids. There are three variations of the game,
including a fast-paced action game for older children.
Sentence Game
Here is a fun game that can be played at school or home. The only materials
needed are pencils, paper, and small cards. A chalkboard will be needed if this
is played in the classroom.
Ten Down
It’s possible to make a game out of basic maths drills, and this game
does just that! As you are making your own dice (see
Dice Game Tips and Tricks)
you can tailor this game precisely to the age and level of your child.
File Folder Games
Number
squares
Practice your early addition skills with this fun educational game using a board and
die. 
Watch your step
"Around
The World" card games
These games can be played in the classroom with lots of
children, or as a family too. Infinitely adaptable, and lots of fun!
Three Bags Full

to 30; the second helps children learn place value.
