Number Catch Game with Active Apple Man

Really simple game that you can play with 2 players or just one.

You will need;

  • paper
  • pen
  • ball

2 players

  • First write several numbers each on a separate piece of paper, could be 0-5, 0-10
  • Scatter your numbers all over the floor or preferably in the garden
  • To begin start running around the numbers all over the space, being careful you don’t bump into anything and when the adult says so, run and jump onto a number
  • Players can now call out the number that they have landed on and pass the ball that amount of times to the other player

( you could take turns with what number you choose to throw and even talk about for ex; “Is 5 a bigger number than 3?”) 

1 player

  • Again use your number cards but this time when you land on that number could you try and do that amount of throwing up and catching yourself or bouncing off the ground or a wall outside

You could try different tricks with the ball, experiment and have fun.  This is a great opportunity to not only get some exercise but to focus on numeral recognition, counting skills, listening skills and turn-taking.

Have Fun
