RUN! Match the total dots on the dominos to their sum posted.
Materials
Instructions
Write the numbers 0-12 on separate pieces of paper
Tape them to the wall or ground
Put a pile of dominos far, far, far away from the numbers taped. (more distance to run- gotta wear these kids out!)
Tell your child to run as fast as they can grabbing one domino at a time from their pile, counting or adding the dots, and then placing them by the piece of paper with the answer.
Additional ideas
Make it a game with siblings. Divide up the dominos into piles. Whoever finishes their pile first wins.
Make it a scavenger hunt. Instead of piles, hide the dominoes all over the house or yard and have them race to finish.
Put on music while they play. See if they can finish their task before the playlist stops.
Why I like it
Low prep
Few, basic materials
Learning disguised as a game
Can work for multiple ages. Give the easier dominos to the younger learner
Dominoes are a great visual to show how different numbers can add up to the same sum.
