Three Bags Full

We have two versions of this maths game: the first reinforces number recognition and counting up to 30, although it can be adapted for numbers up to just 10 or 20; the second helps children to learn the concept of place value.

For both versions you will need to print out our friendly sheep. To save printer ink we have not made him a black sheep: if you would like to stick to the letter of the nursery rhyme, we suggest you print out the black and white version and colour him in!

Colour sheep

Black and white sheep

Game 1: numbers up to 30

Print out a game board for each player:

Game board 1 colour

Game board 1 black and white

You will need lots of markers, which we suggest you cut out of card or felt to match the colour of your sheep - 30 for each player. You will also need a dice.

How to play:
Put the sheep printout in the centre of play and place the square pieces on it. The youngest player goes first, and rolls the dice. He takes the equivalent number of markers from the sheep and starts to fill up his "bags", b covering up the appropriate numbers in the correct sequence. The first player to make "Three Bags Full" wins the game.

Note:
This game can be adapted easily for younger players by cutting off, or covering up, one or more bags. You could also adapt a dice so that it only had the numbers 1 to 3 on it.

Game 2: Place Value

Print out a game board for each player:

Game board 2 colour

Game board 2 black and white

As in the first game, you will need a pile of markers and a dice.

How to play:
Put the sheep printout in the centre of play and place the markers on it. The youngest player rolls the dice, takes the appropriate number of markers, and begins to fill up his "bags", starting with the Units bag. When he has ten units, he must exchange them for a marker in the Tens bag, and so on. The first player to reach 100 and make his "Three Bags Full" wins the game.

To put it in a nice way, my son is rather squirmy. He doesn't like to sit still for very long unless he's playing a video game, then it's just amazing. So instead of constantly telling him to sit down and do his math, we take it outside or up the stairs, literally...
