Today in the noisy quiet room we explored table top games. The children selected a couple of games to play throughout the morning. These games focused on matching, turn taking and developing our social skills. Bellow are some of the games we played.
Snap
We played snap with picture cards. We took turns to deal out the cards and then started the game. Everyone did very well taking turns with our friends when playing. When we found two cards the same we had to be very quick and say “SNAP! Everyone did super work and we have some very quick fingers!
“You need two the same”
“I’m going to be quick and snap them”
“I play this game at home and you need to get two the same”
Smelly Wellies
In the game of smelly wellies we placed all the welly cards face down and took it in turns to flip over one left and one right (green & red) welly to try make a pair. We had to test our memory and remember where they were. Once we found a pair we added them to our board.
“Turn them over and get two the same”
“You take one red and one green”
“Two the same is pair”
”It’s your turn next”
“I remember where my one is”
