Counting Jars Game
Children can make this game for a younger sibling, to help them learn to count - they'll have fun assembling the containers and objects.

Call My Bluff
This is a fun word game (made famous by the TV show) which can help children to learn new words, practise dictionary work and presentation skills! It works best in a classroom or large group setting, and you will need time to prepare.

More of a craft activity than a game, this is a great way for kids to get to know each other at the beginning of the school year.

Fish Matching Game
Matching Game cards can be used to play Memory (Concentration), Go Fish and many other card games, as well as played with our sorting mats by one child on their own.
