HOW TO PLAY MAT MATCH?

Take the sets of Number Cards and the Number Name Cards.Shuffle all the cards and spread them, facedown, on a flat surface. No card should overlap the other.

Choose the cards based on the skill you want your kid to practice. If you want her to practice

counting, select the Number Cards and the Counting Cards.

Ask player 1 to turn-over any one card and leave it face-up.Now, the next player will also turn over one card.Next, she will scan all the open cards and try to pair them with the one she opened.

Let’s say player 1 had turned a Number Name Card of 5.Now, if the card turned by next player is the Number Card 5, she can match it to the card turned by player 1 and keep both the cards with herself.

As a reward for winning a pair, she gets to turn another card and match it with other open cards to make a pair.The process repeats until she turns a card which has no matches.The game ends when all the cards have paired.

GAME 2 – YOUNG WHALE!

Major FocusNumber recognition (1 to 20)

This game is for…2 - 5 Players

Who wins?The player who collects maximum cards.

Who moves first?Before starting the game, each player will randomly pick a card. The player who picks the lowest number card (number, number name, or counting card) becomes the 1st player.

HOW TO PLAY YOUNG WHALE?

Take 1 set of cards, shuffle them, and distribute equally among all the players.No player will see their cards. The cards they get will be kept face down at all times.Player 1 will begin the game by picking the top card from her stack and putting it in the play zone for everyone to see.Now, player 2 will also pick up the top card from her stack and put it over player 1’s card.

For initial practice, choose just one set of cards. This should be based on the knowledge level of your kids and the skill you want them

to practice.

If the value of player 2’s card is lesser than that of player 1’s card, she will take all the cards from the play zone and add it to the bottom of her stack.Let’s say player 1 had played card with number 7 on it.

Now, player 2 plays her card which turns out to be number 2. In this case, player 2 will take away all the cards in the play zone. Why? Because, 2 < 7.

In case the number played by player 2 was greater than or equal to 7, then the game would have continued to the next player playing her card.Whenever a player plays the lower card and wins the cards, she will begin the next round by playing the top card from her stack.The game ends when a player runs out of all her cards. The player with maximum cards is the winner and is declared as the Young Whale.

For more challenge, play with 2 or more sets. Let kids compare numbers in various forms.
