Card Game - War
Do you remember playing the card game, War as a child?
Let me refresh your memory… It is the game that seems to go on and on forever. Sometimes lasting longer than a good game of Monopoly.
If you have not played this card game in a while, you may want to consider teaching it to your children. This game not only helps develop patience, it is a great game for learning numbers. Each time a card is flipped, your child must identify the two numbers and then figure out which number is larger.
This card game not only can help strengthen math skills but it is great for hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills. The constant flipping of cards and holding the deck helps strengthen the hand and wrist muscles.
Idea of the Day:
Teach and play the card game, War with your children.
