Games - The Secret Learning Tool

Have you heard of Game schooling?



This is just a few of the games that are out for the girls to
freely choose from to play when they want. 


It is basically playing games to facilitate learning .

Although we don't game school 100% we are HUGE fans of utilizing games into our days. They save all of our sanity most days when working on our lessons just aren't an option for my girls. I much prefer pulling out a game we can all play and will have fun together. They bring connection and the girls have little idea that they are learning!


Sounds amazing, right?



Here is a list of a few games that have frequented our table as of late.

For my youngest: 

Nonsensical Stories Game : This is a cooperative story based game for ages 3 and up.

Haba Orchard Game : This is a fun game for cooperative learning and fine motor.

Hape Listen to Clues  : This is good for paying attention and following directions.

Guess Who? : Great for asking questions and paying attention to details.

For my oldest (who is now 6)

Outfoxed!  A simplified game of Clue!

Sums in Space : A fun addition and subtraction game using number 0-9.

Qwirkle : a fun strategy game for the entire family. My husband and I really enjoy this one too!

Scrabble Junior : This particular version of Scrabble has options to play with a younger playing for letter recognition and is able to move to a more advanced version for spelling.
